[End of the God Station] Remind book friends to keep in mind: Website URL: www.xinwanben.com Remember in a second, never lose it!
Farewell to Natian mirror.
The doctor Xia Bing dares to neglect.
Holding the book in his hand, what is this, 820,000 taels of silver.
is a county.
How many things can be done for the arrears of the Ministry of War, the money and grain of the Ministry of Industry, river embankments, and disaster relief?
He didn't neglect and was about to enter the palace in a hurry.
This matter must be reported as soon as possible, the sooner the better.
He was full of excitement.
The mind has become a paste.
Great achievements.
This Ouyang Zhi is such a villain, how can he do things so beautifully?
…………
Fengtian Temple.
Emperor Hongzhi sullenly lowered his head, pretending that the old god was there, he spread out the paper, dipped the imperial brush in his hand into the ink, and then, with a slight movement of his arm, the pen moved like a snake.
Under the Golden Luan, Ma Wensheng, Minister of the Ministry of War, was almost wailing: "The soldiers have been in arrears for three months, and if they continue to owe it, I am afraid that disaster will be brought to Xiaoqiang, and the Ministry of Households will not be able to provide money. That's good, even a clever woman can hardly cook without rice... Your Majesty..."
Emperor Hongzhi turned a deaf ear to this.
Continue to practice his running script.
The recent running script has made great progress.
He is a dragon and a snake with his pen, writing freely and drippingly.
Zhang Sheng said: "Your Majesty, in the past two years, the Ministry of Rites has sacrificed a lot to sacrifice to heaven and earth, ancestors and ancestors. I beg you to abolish some sacrifices..."
"Your Majesty, old minister... old minister, let's be fair, there are difficulties now..." Wang Ao came out and coughed: "This country is the world... um..."
Emperor Hongzhi couldn't even hear these words clearly, he had already entered the state of selflessness.
Is two hundred thousand taels of silver enough?
Maybe it was given, and Emperor Hongzhi felt at ease.
But what about next time?
The national treasury is short-lived. This is not a matter of one year, two years or three years.
Over the years, I have been saving money and food, but have I ever embezzled money and food from the national treasury?
No!
Touching his own conscience, he said that this palace was built by Fang Jifan's child, and the court did not use a cent.
It's all right now, you guys are out of money, ask me to ask for it, I usually keep it fast, but now I have saved... 41,263,221 taels of silver, you can make up your mind, in the future Once a routine is formed, the inner money will become your hut, come and go whenever you want, then well, I will not be the emperor anymore, okay, you go and move.
In such matters, as long as you breathe a sigh of relief, you will lose everything.
Emperor Hongzhi simply pretended to be deaf and dumb.
"Your Majesty..." Xie Qian howled: "Your Majesty should be kind... Now that money is needed everywhere, and the treasury is not enough, is it possible to let the soldiers and horses in the border town drink the northwest wind? People..."
This sound, Your Majesty, almost broke Emperor Hongzhi's eardrums.
Emperor Hongzhi raised his eyes and stared at the ministers.
Which one of these people is not my minister of the humerus, hey... Emperor Hongzhi sighed, and then he finally responded: "Dingxing County is reforming the tax system. Following the example of Dingxing County, it can make up for the lack of national treasury. New laws are being implemented everywhere in the world, and I am thinking that the annual income of tens of millions of taels of silver should not be a problem."
Ten thousand taels...
Dingxing County...
"Your Majesty." Li Dongyang became cautious: "Your Majesty, do you know that the new policy implemented in Dingxing County vigorously promotes industry and commerce? Your Majesty, the minister bluntly said that this promotion of industry and commerce will hurt farmers, hurt farmers, This is destabilizing the foundation of the country, His Majesty should be cautious about this."
This makes sense, everyone nodded.
When everyone has gone to work, who will farm the land? Once there is not enough food, what is the use of having more money? In this world, there are tens of thousands of mouths. If there is no food, people will starve and rebel.
"Yes, Your Majesty, look at how much land and manpower has been occupied by the industry and commerce." Zhang Sheng was also worried.
They came for money.
Emperor Hongzhi raised his eyebrows.
Almost a little shaken.
But immediately, he still had a sullen face: "I have made up my mind, gentlemen... Internal money is a matter of my family, and I don't need your family to worry about it. Well, I am tired, and you are stepping back."
Liu Jian and others' hearts sank to the bottom of the valley.
Your Majesty has been influenced by some people recently, and has deviated more and more from the appearance of the Holy King as everyone imagined.
Some people sighed inwardly, thinking to themselves, Dingxing County, Dingxing County... What's the use of a single county?
But His Majesty's attitude was firm, Liu Jian didn't want His Majesty to be embarrassed, so he had to say: "Then, I will take my leave."
In everyone's heart, they retired anxiously.
After leaving Fengtian Hall, everyone looked at Liu Jian.
"Liu Gong, what should we do now?"
Liu Jian stroked his beard, looked into the distance, and shook his head: "Didn't your Majesty always talk about Dingxing County, then wait until the money and food books of Dingxing County come, and then go to see you."
Everyone sighed: "It has to be like this."
But at this moment, he saw a person rushing towards him.
This person... is a bit unfamiliar.
But Li Dongyang recognized it.
Seeing the man panting, Li Dongyang stepped forward quickly: "Mr. Xia, how did you enter the palace?"
"It's important, I have something important to see Li
Mr. Li, seeing that Mr. Li is not in the cabinet, so he is bold... bold..." Xia Bing was out of breath.
Li Dongyang frowned: "Is there something important?"
"Dingxing County... Dingxing County's money and grain books, here we come..."
Everyone was in an uproar.
Not to mention that Cao Cao and Cao Cao will be there soon, but to say that he rushed here just for the book of a county, isn't this a bit too much?
Xia Bing has handed over the booklet.
Li Dongyang quickly took it and opened it to have a look.
Liu Jian said from the side: "Read it out."
"Yes, read it out. I'll see what's so special about Dingxing County." Ma Wensheng agreed.
Li Dongyang then said: "The increase in the population of the yellow book is 78,000 households per year, with a population of 239,000..."
Liu Jian's expression changed.
Population growth has always been a good thing.
Li Dongyang's face became more and more solemn: "The annual grain production has increased by 30%..."
"This...is it true?" Ma Wensheng was a little unconvinced: "It needs to be verified."
Everyone nodded secretly, this increase in grain production...is also a good policy.
Li Dongyang read one after another.
Horses were added.
The cattle increased most fiercely, more than doubling in size.
Because the price of grain has risen, not only the local supply is in short supply, but it can also supply the needs of the capital. However, manpower is too expensive. In the past, many gentry were unwilling to raise cattle, not because they couldn’t afford it, but compared to cheap manpower, why? What about cattle plowing? People are cheap.
However, due to the large amount of manpower, the workshops were attracted, and the price of food rose again, so the cattle began to be popularized in large numbers.
At this moment, many people began to whisper: "It seems that Dingxing County has done a good job."
"As expected of Ouyang Zhi, he is a man of great talent."
But here, Li Dongyang didn't read any more, his eyes were fixed on the book, motionless.
"Quickly read, read quickly." Someone urged: "Why, the so-called people have joys and sorrows, and the moon waxes and wanes. If you think about it, there are good places and there must be bad places. Isn't this year's tax money also a deficit? I heard that Dingxing County owed a whole lot of debt to the Xishan Bank for road construction. It was too reckless at the time. Fang Jifan cannibalizes people without spitting out his bones. This mortgage, the old man hates that, this dog-like thing, how can it be so wicked, how can you think of it?"
"Yes, yes, without a mortgage, none of his houses can be sold. Who has so much cash in their hands." Hearing this, Ma Wensheng immediately gritted his teeth, hating him.
These words resonated with many people. Thinking of the fact that I am a dignified head, I still owe the mortgage, and I have to pay the money to the building every month. This...
Liu Jian pressed his hand: "Okay, don't be angry, gentlemen, and listen to what you say first."
Li Dongyang just said: "The yearly income is 1.37 million taels of silver, and 820,000 is paid to the treasury!"
"..."
All of a sudden, the people who were gnashing their teeth suddenly became quiet.
Their expressions are surprisingly weird.
"How much?"
"One hundred and three hundred and seventy thousand!"
"One hundred and three hundred and seventy thousand gold?"
"silver!"
When I heard it was silver, I was even more confused.
If it's gold, it's fine, after all, it's copper.
But if it is silver...
Ever since, many people pinched their fingers and began to calculate.
They are, after all, not very sensitive to numbers.
This is the disadvantage of not going through the basics of system mathematics.
Ma Wensheng took the lead and said: "Ah... 820,000 taels, so to speak, the shortfall in the past two years can be made up, even this year, there may be a surplus, God... the old man has read the booklet, the court's tea for a year The tax is only more than 3,200 taels. If it were not supported by the official salt, the treasury would have been exhausted."
Li Dongyang looked deeply at the recorded number, his face was serious, and he looked at Xia Bing: "Mr. Xia, the number is not wrong."
"It can't be wrong." Xia Bing said cautiously: "Your officer, I have asked several times about delivering the booklets, and he has made it clear and clear that the tax bank is already on the way to be escorted, and it is not far from the Taiping warehouse. , It can be delivered in three to five days, and most of the money is bank notes, which can be exchanged for money and grain in Xishan at any time, and there will be no loss in transportation, it is just the money of dozens of soldiers."
"Dozens of sergeants to transport? This is our lifeblood, just these dozens of sergeants?" Ma Wen stomped his feet angrily, his eyes were red. As the Minister of the Ministry of War, he wished to send a battalion of troops to escort immediately.
Xia Bing smiled wryly: "But...they only have one county, how many people can be dispatched by one county."
A mere county.
One word awakened the dreamer. The figures reported just now, whether it is the increase in population, food production, or tax money, all give people an illusion that this is a government envoy and a province!
The question is, is this really a county?
Everyone is sleepwalking, muddled.
Liu Jian made a decisive decision: "Take the old man's book and have a look."
Or seeing is believing.
After receiving the booklet, Liu Jian looked at it intently, for fear that there might be some mistakes or omissions here.
And everyone stared at Liu Jian.
After a long time, Liu Jian put down the book, raised his head, looked around, and said seriously: "Great political achievements, remarkable political achievements!"
