In short, the plan to hire those who were in the Holy Roman Empire to use them as half a laborer was considered bankrupt.

In addition to the reasons mentioned above, there is another more important reason.

Human rights issues.

Emperor Chongzhen believed that the people of the Ming Dynasty were human rights, and officials from all over the country would naturally think that the people of the Ming Dynasty were human rights. Even if they wanted to bully the people, they would not dare to come too blatantly.

However, do those who do not have a Ming household registration have human rights?

There is no doubt that Emperor Chongzhen believed they did not, and the officials and men from all over the country did not think they had human rights.

For example, after being taken home by some curious people, barbarians are often beaten to death by housewives because of some too loud noises.

Why do you shout so loudly? Are you afraid that your neighbors will not hear it? It’s so insulting!

Then these men didn't care at all, and they might find a way to buy another one, and there was no need to worry about the housewife at home being jealous and angry.

In fact, this is the case. No one will get angry with pets like A Cat and Dog. Just beat them to death if you don’t like them. The government will not care about these bullshit matters.

The women of the Holy Roman Empire are different, or because of the existence of the "Mingluo Trade and Friendship Treaty", the women who came from the Holy Roman Empire have some human rights.

In addition, the princess of the third son Zhu Ciyi was the eldest princess of the Holy Roman Empire. The people of the Ming Dynasty had no idea about the female grand prince of Bavaria, so they naturally thought that she was the eldest princess of the Holy Roman Empire.

The common belief among the people is that since Emperor Chongzhen was able to marry the eldest princess of the Holy Roman Empire for the third son, it means that the people of the Holy Roman Empire are at least as good as those of them.

Some people are like that and have a relative relationship with the Ming Dynasty. The civilians of the Holy Roman Empire will naturally be looked up to by the Ming Dynasty and will not equate them with other barbarians.

The people's minds are simpler, at least not like the local governments and the big guys in the court. Their hearts are bright and bright from the inside out.

The big men in the court, especially when they were at the position of the Minister, could basically see the purpose of Emperor Chongzhen's three sons marrying the Holy Roman Empire Princess as the concubine.

I just fell in love with someone else's territory, and I also wanted to add more fire to Europe...

In addition to these bullshit reasons, there is another reason, that is, the workers who were brought back by the Governor's Office of the Five Army were all castrated...

Now that I want to use the people of the Holy Roman Empire as half a laborer, is it a castration or not?

For the sake of relatives, if these Romans do something, the Ming Dynasty will be disgusting.

If you become castrated, you will definitely face a lot of risks that people from the Holy Roman Empire may die and various subsequent compensation issues. No matter how you look at it, it will be more cost-effective.

Just when Emperor Chongzhen was having a headache over the labor problem, Wu Ganlai turned his attention to Zhang Zhiji: "Now the Governor's Office of the Five Army has dispatched a large army to the north, I wonder when the battle will be achieved?"

Zhang Zhiji laughed and said, "Did Wu Butang think that what happened on the battlefield can give birth to a baby just like a woman who has a baby in ten months?

According to the plan of the Governor's Office of the Five Army, this time it can be regarded as a three-way army targeting Tsarist Russia. The mobilization of soldiers and the preparation of materials had just been completed some time ago. It is estimated that the three-way army has just set off.

If the progress is fast, good news will come in three months. If the progress is slower, and if the extreme cold weather there is over, it will probably be delayed until next year."

Wu Ganlai also had a headache now.

I originally thought that Zhang Zhiji could handle some laborers to come to the Ming Dynasty, and at least ease the conflict between the Ministry of Railways, the Ministry of Transport and the Ministry of Works, but I didn't expect that there would be news in three months.

Emperor Chongzhen smiled and waved his hand and said, "Forget it, it's all three months or a year, these projects are all there. If you really can't do it, just take it slowly, don't rush for a moment."

Since there was no risk of hanging on the old crooked tree, Emperor Chongzhen was not in a hurry. At least he was not in a hurry to deal with Tsarist Russia immediately, nor did he rush to deal with Mughals, Ottomans and European barbarians immediately.

Let's take your time in your lifetime, don't worry.

After the men of his subordinates bowed and responded, Emperor Chongzhen continued, "Is there anything else besides these things?"

Wu Ganlai bowed and said, "I have something to report to Your Majesty."

After Emperor Chongzhen nodded, Wu Ganlai spoke: "According to the statistical results of the 25th year of Chongzhen, although the output of grain did not decline much, the idle rate of private land increased compared with the 24th year of Chongzhen.

If we look at the data from Chongzhen fifteen years ago, we are afraid that this data will be expanded several times.

Wei Chen is worried that starting this year, the idle rate of land will rise again, which may eventually affect grain production."

This is a very serious problem.

Whether a country is stable is definitely a very important factor, followed by issues such as public security or administration.

It is very simple. Whether you can eat well and wear warmly is the first need of people. As for public security or administration, it can basically be classified as the second need after meeting the first need. It is obvious which one is more important.

This article is actually common, regardless of whether it is placed in ancient times, in other worlds or even in the Qidian world, and in the world of the writers who created it, and it is not satisfied with the basic method of eating and wearing a good time, the rest is completely nonsense.

Otherwise, what kind of etiquette and shame can the people be expected to be hungry?

What are you kidding?

Emperor Chongzhen said: "What's the reason?"

Wu Ganlai glared at Hong Chengchou and the other two with hatred, and bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the income from grain output is not as much as that of working on the construction site, especially the construction sites of the Ministry of Railways, Transportation, and the Ministry of Works, which give more money than farming.

In addition to the employment needs of these projects by the imperial court, the workshops run by the people have also increased the wages of workmanship from the surface, which has led to more and more people choosing to work rather than farming."

Emperor Chongzhen nodded and said, "How long is Daming's current grain reserves? If we look at the situation in these few years, if there is no grain harvest every year, how many years can it be supported?"

After thinking about it, Wu Ganlai bowed and said, "If you really have no grain every year and there is no grain of food added to the warehouses in various places, and not counting the grain reserved by the people, it can only last for three years at most. Only in three years, it will be a tragic situation of changing children and even causing chaos in the world."

Emperor Chongzhen immediately smiled.

If the grain reserved in various places can be supported for three years if the grain reserved in the reserve warehouse is often closed, even if the grain reserved by the people is not calculated, there will be no problems.

The supply and demand relationship will solve this problem by itself.

If less food grows, less food will be circulated on the market. As long as the government does not come forward to suppress it, the price of food will inevitably rise. This is a very normal market supply relationship.

The original situation where the income from growing grain is not as good as the income from working goods will be changed. When people see that growing grain is profitable, they will naturally go back to grow grain in order to make more money.

Even if there was no increase in grain prices, Emperor Chongzhen would not be too worried.

The main force in the Ming Dynasty is the major projects in the three major departments, including the Ministry of Railways, the Ministry of Transport and the Ministry of Industry. As for the private workshops, the labor volume is actually not very large, and it is far less than the labor demand in later generations.

The projects of these three companies do require a lot of labor, but the people of the Ming Dynasty are not used to traveling far away to work. Once the local project stops, they don’t go back to farm honestly. Do they have to follow the three major projects all over the world?

After smiling indifferently, Emperor Chongzhen said, "Look at the people around the capital and Nanjing, have you chosen to go back to farm recently? This matter is much easier to handle.

The so-called higher work income than farming is actually an inevitable phenomenon, but what if there is no work to do? Where should the people go? Don’t they still have to farm?

A few years ago, I and my beloved ministers had a headache about how to make the people work, but now I have a headache about how to make the people farm. It’s really funny to think it’s too much.”

Although Wu Ganlai did not have many things that Emperor Chongzhen had seen, after Emperor Chongzhen mentioned the key points, he immediately understood.

I was frightened by the growing idle rate of land, fearing that all the people in the world would throw them down and go to the construction site to work.

In fact, even if all the people in the world go to work, this matter will not be achieved overnight. It will definitely be delayed for a long time. There will be nothing to see if it is ten or eight years.

Even if there is really that day, I believe there will be corresponding solutions to this matter at that time.

After revealing this article with a smile, Wu Ganlai followed the trend and led the topic to Tsarist Russia.

Wu Ganlai was not interested in Tsarist Russia. Even if Emperor Chongzhen now asked everyone to get a female slave from a foreign race to play an example, Wu Ganlai was still not interested.

Don’t worry about whether you have money or not, or whether you reach your own level, the court will send female slaves, so why should you worry about it?

What Wu Gan was concerned about was how much treasury would be used in the war against Tsarist Russia in the end - there was money in the treasury, but if it was really used too much, what was the difference between cutting the flesh on his body...

Zhang Zhitun thoughtfully and said, "It shouldn't be too many? This time it's mainly about clearing out those barbarians, and the main battles are cavalry, and artillery will not be used too much."

Before Wu Gan could speak, Hong Chengchou asked first: "Cavals? Clearance? Is the military government mainly killing people or arresting those barbarians this time?"

Hong Chengchou was not worried. It was because the five army governor's office had too many dark history - it has been said many times, try to catch some living barbarians and don't just think about killing and killing!

But the current situation is clearly the military mansion has not thought about catching the barbarians.

It would be fine if it were those pure civil officials who did not understand military affairs, but Hong Chengchou had led soldiers after all, and he knew very well what the performance of the cavalry on the battlefield was.

It is naturally an excessive way to describe them as not growing in a single grass, but these killing talents are much more ruthless than artillery.

No matter how you get the artillery, you will have some fish that will escape the net. Infantry can still be caught and act as coolies. Once the cavalry starts charging, they will basically go to kill them all!

Zhang Zhi said in great pain: "What do you say about Hongbutang? If artillery and troops are used, let’s not mention the question of whether the barbarians will run away. The weather over there alone will be enough for the army to drink a pot!"

Although he knew that Zhang Zhiji was telling the truth, Hong Chengchou couldn't help but say, "No matter what, please ask the military mansion to try to catch some living barbarians back? Killing fewer people can also accumulate more good deeds, right?"

Zhang Yingxuan also spoke, "Yes, if you can catch more barbarians, it will be excellent, so why bother killing and hurting more?"

Zhang Zhiji glared at Hong Chengchou and Zhang Yingxuan hatefully.

Don’t look at these bad old men who are kind and kind now demand less killing and accumulate good deeds, in fact, these old guys are all bad!

If you don’t believe it, look at how many barbarians died in various major projects of the Ministry of Railways, Ministry of Transportation and Ministry of Works. Now you can come out to pretend to be a Bodhisattva? These scholars are so fucking good at talking lies with their eyes open!

Wu Ganlai was thinking about it in his mind.

For those who kill the military mansion, it doesn’t matter whether it is killing the barbarians or catching them.

Although you can get military achievements by catching a barbarian, you can also sell another five taels of silver. But is the same as the military function of catching prisoners and killing enemies?

It is obvious that even if you have a bonus of five taels of silver, the military merits of capturing prisoners cannot compare to the military merits of killing enemies. The two are obviously not the same thing!

It was a bit good to say a few years ago, but Qiu Ba and others were a little nervous after all. Being able to sell five taels of silver to subsidize their household income was the choice of many big-headed soldiers, so there were more cases of capturing prisoners.

Now as the Ming Dynasty's treasury became more and more abundant, the military expenditure was also getting higher and higher. With the money in hand, these Qiu Ba people naturally care about military merits rather than money.

That won’t happen. For Qiu Ba and others, military merits are more cost-effective, but for the Ministry of Revenue, it’s more cost-effective to capture prisoners. Even if a barbarian prisoner wants five taels of silver, it is less rewarding than killing the enemy’s military merits!

After pondering for a while, Wu Ganlai said, "Duke of the British, the Ministry of Revenue still purchases at the price of five taels of silver for each barbarian prisoner, but can the military government modify the calculation method of military merits and also mention the military merits of the captured prisoners?

If we don’t mention the military merits of captives, we are afraid that the soldiers will be busy killing the enemy and will not care about captives? At that time, will we still have a headache like we are now?"

Zhang Zhiji nodded and said, "It's okay to mention it up, but this wind cannot rise. If it becomes a regular rule in the future, who will concentrate on killing the enemy? I'm afraid they are all busy catching prisoners."

Seeing that Wu Ganlai was still frowning, Zhang Zhiji couldn't help but speak, "If you want to catch more barbarians, there is actually no way?"
