With Cao Huachun's words, Zhu Youcai said, "xuanzu's birthday and Wu Xiang's entry into the palace."
Father Cao was stunned, "now?"
This time period is already Zishi. Zhu you checked his head, "now."
Cao Huachun respectfully led the order. He had long found that he had only been in contact with the Immortal King for more than half a month. His Majesty's change was great.
More vigorous and resolute than ever before.
In particular, after eating a few Xianjia delicacies and becoming stronger, Zhu Youjian was more diligent than before. Even if Liaodong's later Jin Dynasty was no longer a serious problem, the young emperor still did not slack off. Those Xianjun said it very clearly.
For the Ming Dynasty, the later Jin Dynasty is not a difficult problem. The difficulties are all kinds of natural and man-made disasters within the Ming Dynasty. As long as the internal problems are straightened out, it is not difficult to push East Liaoning without the arrival of immortals. If the internal problems are not straightened out, there will be other disturbances without the later Jin Dynasty, such as various civil uprisings.
The downfall of the Qin Dynasty included Chen Sheng, Wu Guang, the downfall of the Han Dynasty included Zhang Jiao, and the downfall of the Tang Dynasty included the chaos of the Yellow nest. Even if these names were not the ultimate beneficiaries, Zhu Youjian still understood what consequences civil unrest could bring.
After a period of time, Wu Xiang hurried into the palace and paid a salute. After paying homage, Zhu Youjian said with a smile, "you two, I plan to stop collecting Liao rates from next year. What do you think?"
Zu dashou immediately responded, "Your Majesty is holy and bright. I congratulate you for being like your majesty!"
Wu Xiang followed suit.
What is the concept of Liao pay? In the period of several years after the apocalypse, an additional 4.5 million liang of silver was collected for Liao's pay a year, which has exceeded the normal total tax of the Ming court.
What's more terrible is that the imperial court collected so much. Did the officials at the bottom ask for more when they attacked the people?? Embezzlement? There must be something wrong with this behavior.
Therefore, a Liao salary almost made people's burden several times heavier. Daming died in financial collapse. The three major salaries in the late Ming Dynasty were one of the main reasons for destroying Daming. This statement has always been very popular.
There were three major rates in the late Ming Dynasty: Liao rates, suppression rates and training rates. The first Liao rates began in the late Wanli period, the second was the Levy in the fourth year of Chongzhen, and the last was the twelfth year of Chongzhen.
The latter two are aimed at all kinds of anti thieves who are becoming more and more fierce in China.
In Wu Xiang's words, Zhu Youjian smiled, "I also plan to transfer the two secretaries' families and your Liaodong troops to Fujian."
Zu dashou was stupid for two moments.
Zhu Youjian, like a movie emperor, sighed on the spot. "I received a secret report from the royal guards that Zheng Zhilong, a guerrilla of Fujian Navy, sold Zheng's flag along the southeast coast. All passing ships can be protected from pirates and pirates as long as they put up Zheng's flag. If they don't have this flag, they will be harassed and looted."
"One flag, Zheng Zhilong receives 3000 Liang a year, and one flag can only protect one ship."
"After a year, the Zheng guerrilla can receive ten million liang of silver by selling flags. As the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, I say I am the supreme in the world. In fact, I am far inferior to a naturalized pirate leader."
Is the news true? This is what the royal guards heard from the group of wearers, but Zhu Yujian doesn't believe it. He can't believe that a pirate can be so rich.
In the normal year of the Ming Dynasty, the tax was only 34 million liang of silver. The increase in Liao rates almost made heaven and earth angry. It only collected 45 million Liang a year. Zheng Zhilong, a pirate, sold flags and collected 10 million a year?
Who believes it!
But this is not a matter of faith. He knows that stopping Liao pay will certainly make Zu dashou and Wu Xiang feel resentment. It is just that they dare not vent due to the terrorist military pressure of Daming.
Now, throw these guys to Fujian and bite the dog with Zheng Zhilong.
Liao's salary of 4.5 million Liang a year brought up today's Liaodong military group. Zhu Youjian didn't expect these guys to deal with Houjin for a long time. They didn't have the ability at all. They'd better grab food with Zheng Zhilong.
"Zu Qing, I appoint you as the chief soldier of Taiwan and Wu Qing as the chief soldier of Fuzhou. As for the payment and silver, it's up to you. No matter how much silver you can get from Zheng Zhilong, it's yours. How about it?"
Zu dashou and Wu Xiang's scalp is about to explode. Your majesty not only wants to throw them and their men from the northeast to the southeast, but also let them raise silver by themselves?? Are you kidding.
But at the thought of the power of the Chongzhen Ernian rifle, the two hearts were cool and cold, and they all had to obey respectfully.
After the two generals left, Zhu Youjian once again said to Wang Chengen, "oral instructions, deputy envoy of overseas propaganda and comfort, Li Weixian, has been loyal to Huangming for generations. When he learned of the difficulties of the state, he immediately led the people back. I am deeply sincere. Now I am promoted to the governor of Taiwan, and I allow him to deploy his own staff and take office immediately. I want to collect one million liang of taxes in Taiwan every year."
Wang Chengen was stunned. Is that ok? Wanli year, the Ming government has called Taiwan the big island, but is there anyone there? It's said that if Zheng Zhilong hadn't been emigrating there for years, the island would be full of savages. By the way, there are a group of Falangji people building the city?
There is not even a formal official system there. Now it's left to Li Weixian, whose origin is not clear?
There's nothing wrong. Li Weixian's original Deputy envoy for overseas propaganda and comfort was from the fourth grade, and one magistrate was the fourth grade. However, there were not many civilized people in that kind of broken place. Now, first throw in a chief soldier like Zu dashou, and then a magistrate??
"Let the cabinet issue a formal edict, which saves millions of liang of tax information, and send 800 Li to see Li Weixian urgently. I don't care whether he is a descendant sent out in the era of Chengzu or not. As long as he can take out millions of liang of tax a year, let alone the magistrate, what if I give him a governor?"
It has been thoroughly known that the biggest problem of Daming is lack of money, which is the topic pointed out by Xianjun.
Well, those who can get money are good ministers, and those who can save money are good generals.
It's a lot of money to cut off Liao's pay. It's also a saving to lose the Liaodong army to Fujian and Taiwan. You don't have to pay normal military pay. As for Li Weixian, aren't you blowing that Zheng Zhilong can sell 10 million Liang a year?
This is your boast, not what I said, so I'll reduce your share and take only one tenth of it??
Some small complacency flashed under his heart. Zhu Youjian said again, "while the main force of the later Jin Dynasty is trapped in Zunhua, he issued a decree to order you Shiwei, man GUI and Hou Shilu to lead troops out of Liaodong and win Shenyang and Liaoyang as soon as possible."
"According to the meaning of the immortal princes, it's still necessary for the later gold tartar leaders to jump around for a while, but it's still possible to subdue the lost land when they can't return to the division."
"The main force of their clan is in Zunhua. I personally went to the battlefield and killed hundreds of Tartars. If the three of them can't win several empty cities, they can cut themselves."
