The silver that Zhu Ci Xin had earned was not put into the system.
The silver in the system was all mined by the farmers.
All the silver that was earned was sent to the Mint Bureau and produced into silver coins.
The silver coins were deposited in the Ming Empire's bank as reserve coins and were classified as the empire's national treasury.
Zhu Ci sat in the carriage and personally made the salary table for the officials of the Ming Empire.
In order to make it more reasonable, the Ming Empire would pay the salary once a month.
The salary of the officials of the Ming Empire was the lowest in history. In the early stages of the Ming Empire, under Zhu Yuanzhang's powerful rule, the officials were content with poverty. In the middle and later stages of the Ming Empire, there were no more iron-blooded Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di, and all kinds of corruption cases emerged one after another.
In order to solve this problem, Zhu Ci Xin was prepared to use his salary.
In the Ming Empire, a first-grade official earned 87 stones of rice a month.
A stone is ten buckets, and a bucket is ten liters.
The rice in the Ming Empire was divided into polished rice and brown rice.
One liter of polished rice weighed 1.5 jin. A liter of brown rice weighed about 1.3 catties.
From the early days of the Ming Empire to the end, the price of grain continued to rise.
In the last years of Chongzhen, a stone of polished rice was priced at 10 taels of silver, and brown rice was priced at 8 taels of silver per stone. In the beginning, two silver coins could buy a stone of rice.
During this period, food had become a hard currency.
Thinking of this, Zhu Ci Xin set a strict price for grain.
For the convenience of calculation, the city center had unified units of weight.
The purchase of food would also be calculated by weight, not by stone, bucket, or other units of capacity.
For convenience's sake, Zhu Ci's 1,000 grams was equivalent to two catties, and he used it in the center of his two towns.
The Leizhou Prefecture had also started to use a new unit of measurement, using silver and copper coins.
The price of one catty of rice was limited to five yuan per catty.
A silver coin worth 1000 was equivalent to one tael of silver. It could buy 200 catties of rice.
In order to prevent merchants from selling the rice they bought to other places occupied by Slave Jian.
Zhu Ciyan continued to draw up relevant measures on his draft paper.
Any merchant who smuggled rice into Slave Jian's territory would be sentenced to death.
Zhu Ci Xin smiled in satisfaction at the policies he had formulated.
Zhu Ci Xin continued to make his own salary table, preparing to pay his salary with silver coins.
First grade 87 stones, changed to 50 silver coins worth 1,000 yuan each month.
From 72 stones of first-grade to 45 silver coins with a face value of 1,000 yuan every month.
61 stones of second-grade would be changed to 40 silver coins worth 1,000 yuan per month.
From 48 stones of the Second Grade, 35 silver coins worth 1,000 yuan each month.
35 dans of the third grade, 30 silver coins worth 1,000 yuan each month.
From Rank-3 to 26 dans, 25 silver coins worth 1,000 yuan each month.
20 pills per month for Grade 4, 18 pills per month for Grade 4, 16 pills per month for Grade 5, 14 pills per month for Grade 5, 12 pills per month for Grade 6, and 10 pills per month for Grade 6.
9 Rank-7, 8 Secondary Rank-7, 7 Rank-8, 6 Secondary Rank-8, 5 Rank-9, 4 Secondary Rank-9, and 3 Unranked.
After setting up the salary form, Zhu Cishi handed it to the Brocade Guard beside him.
"Hurry up and send this salary form to Magistrate Lu Si. Tell him that the territories under my jurisdiction will be paid according to this new salary form! This was the price regulation for rice, and they had to strictly follow this regulation!”
After finishing all this, it was soon September 9th.
There was still one more day before they reached Zhaoqing City.
After entering the territory of the Zhaoqing Prefecture, Zhu Ciao looked at the abandoned farmland around him.
There were all kinds of dilapidated houses. The commoners carried their burdens and fled to Leizhou Prefecture.
He looked into the distance at Zhu Cixi, who was wearing a dragon robe and waving a banner.
The commoners naturally hid on both sides of the road and knelt down to salute Zhu Cike.
"All of you, rise! The Leizhou Prefecture is currently settling the refugees. Go there immediately! Of course, it's fine if you don't go. My army will take back the place occupied by Slave Jian!”
The commoners lowered their heads, their eyes dull.
"Your Majesty, I heard that Prince Tuoduo of Slave Jian is personally leading the army with the white flag. They are not far from Zhaoqing City! You'd better not get involved! Slave Jian was invincible, and the Ming army was no match for them!”，A white-bearded old man with a hunched back tried to persuade him.
Zhu Ci raised his head, but the tears in his eyes did not fall.
"Get up! I will definitely restore the former glory of the Ming Empire! The army continues to march!"
Zhu Ci Xin didn't turn his head. He didn't want to see the weak bodies of the commoners.
The skeletons of the commoners seemed to be unable to support their entire bodies.
The 60,000 soldiers also felt terrible.
Although they were all recruited by the town center, their minds were implanted with the memories of this era.
The soldiers were very self-aware and gave some food to the people.
The commoners looked at the soldiers and naturally did not dare to move forward.
They were all afraid. Previously, when they were being chased by Slave Jian, if they didn't hand over the silver, they would be hacked to death.
He fled to Zhaoqing Prefecture and was chased by the Ming army. If he did not hand over the food and silver, he would be hacked to death.
When they saw the Emperor in the dragon robe and the food handed over by the soldiers, the commoners cried out loud.
The commoners were crying. It was too difficult to encounter such a team.
When many commoners received the food, they knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
They did not expect that the Ming Empire would still have such a loving team at this time.
The people's thanks and cheers for His Majesty resounded throughout the entire road.
Zhu Ci Xin was very satisfied. He still needed the support of the people to take back the world that belonged to the Ming Empire.
Now, his image in the eyes of the people was already very high and mighty.
The commoners also knew who was good to them and who was bad to them.
Now, the image of Zhu Ciyao was spread everywhere by the commoners along the way. The more it spread, the more it spread. It had already made Zhu Ciyao into an emperor who loved his people like his own son and personally led his troops to war.
Zhaoqing City
The Gui King and his officials had been waiting for Zhu Cishi's arrival.
Li Chengdong and his 12 subordinates who were imprisoned in the prison were already in despair.
