The censor's expression changed and he quickly knelt on the ground, begging for punishment!
Because he realized that he had almost said something wrong!
The man knelt on the ground and trembled non-stop!
His mouth was really cheap!
Didn't they know that this country supervisor loved to kill civil officials on the spot?
It was over!
It was over!
"Sinless, get up, my lord.”
Zhu Zhan said to the kneeling minister with a smile.
The censor thought he had misheard and was stunned for a moment.
Only then did he kowtow gratefully,"Thank you, Imperial Supervisor!"”
He quickly got up and flashed back to his ranking.
Zhu Zhanshi had always been aware of the poor tax revenue of the Great Ming Dynasty.
Not only were the taxes low, but they were also targeting the farmers every day.
How much money could the commoners have?
If they didn't accept the merchants and capitalists, who else would they accept?
Just take it back with great force!
Even if they accepted it like this, the merchants would still make a profit.
This was also where Zhu Zhan Xin's confidence lay.
It would not hurt the vitality of this group of merchants.
It could maintain the stability of the market and increase the country's income.
It was the best of both worlds.
Da Ming's business would continue to prosper.
Yang Shiqi stood up at this moment and said what was in his heart. He said emotionally,"In the past, the tax policy of the Ming Dynasty seemed to be wrong. Although the grain tax, salt, iron, and even silk and tea were also large households, they could only focus on the Jiangnan area. However, they did not know that no matter how much merchants earned, they were all a group of wealthy merchants! They really have a lot of money!"
Crown Prince Zhu Gaochi nodded and said,""That's right. We only collect taxes from farmers and poor people. How much money can we have? The first batch of taxes collected by this new policy is enough to support our Great Ming Dynasty for many years! The new policy should indeed continue to be implemented and gradually improve its shortcomings and shortcomings.”
Yang Shiqi agreed." The Crown Prince is right. The Cabinet agrees.”
Zhu Gaochi also chuckled and said,""Your Majesty, you're still urging me for military expenses. Now, I can also allocate funds for him.”
"The Crown Prince is right. His Majesty at the front line doesn't have to worry anymore.”Yang Shiqi said happily.
The next morning court session was to deal with the matter of silver arriving in the capital one after another.
To be on the safe side, Crown Prince Zhu Gaochi had sent out the garrison troops that had been left behind in the capital.
Zhu Gaochi couldn't afford to make any mistakes with this batch of tax money.
In the end, even the Embroidered Uniform Guards had to send people to pick them up.
This also showed how happy Zhu Gaochi was!
He was so happy that he wished he could see the 200 million taels of silver enter the treasury as soon as possible.
As for Zhu Zhanyi, he went to tease Hu Shanxiang and discuss martial arts with Haitang.
The next morning.
After Zhu Gaochi left the morning court, he went to the palace where the cabinet worked.
He found the three Yang Lords and the Minister of War.
"Hahaha, tell the old man to fight the war well. We must destroy the Arutai tribe! As his son, how can I not support him? Lord Hu, this is the approval for the military expenditure. Hurry up and send the military pay to the Emperor at the front line. His Majesty also needs to purchase supplies, right? Hurry up, we can't delay any longer!”
The Minister of War was excited. When he took the approval slip and read it, his eyes immediately widened and he stuttered,"Two taels…twenty million taels?"
The three Yang Lords also came over to take a look.
He couldn't help but glance at the Crown Prince a few times.
Everyone in the capital knew that the Crown Prince was stingy.
After all, everyone knew that the Crown Prince was used to being thrifty and thrifty, so in the past, it was the Emperor who let the Crown Prince manage the country.
Not to mention taking out 20 million taels, the last time the Emperor went out to battle, the Crown Prince was dragged out by the Emperor until the end and only took out less than 3 million taels.
This time, it was really a big deal!
20 million taels in one go!
This was all silver.
Noticing that the few adults were looking at him with strange gazes, the Crown Prince clasped his hands and said in a bad mood,""Milords, why are you looking at this prince like this? In order to support His Majesty in sweeping across the Mobei, wasn't this what it should be? Alright, remember to send it to His Majesty as soon as possible. Oh right, this letter is also for His Majesty. I'll leave first! I still have things to do."
As he spoke, the Crown Prince hummed a little tune and left.
After a while, the Minister of War muttered to himself,"With the military pay, we can even buy quilts and cotton clothes, as well as high-quality military rations and horses…What kind of wealth is this? Oh my god, is this still my Great Ming Dynasty?”
The three Yang Lords from the cabinet looked at each other and smiled.
These were all brought by the country's overseer!
The new policy of supervising the country swept away the haze of the Great Ming Dynasty!
Three days later.
Zhu Di from Datong Prefecture.
While eating mutton and drinking hard liquor to warm up.
He received an urgent message from the capital.
The guard brought a handkerchief for Zhu Di. After wiping his hands, Zhu Di took the warm wine that was handed to him. He held the wine bowl and looked at the letter that the guard had cut open. He threw it away and took a look!
Crackle!
The wine bowl in Zhu Di's hand fell to the ground!
"What's wrong?"
"Your Majesty!"
"Protect His Majesty!"
The guard was terrified and quickly came forward to ask.
The surrounding guards drew their swords and surrounded Zhu Di.
Zhu Di's eyes widened as he looked at the letter in his hand. He seemed to have fallen into a daze as he muttered,"200 million…200 million…200 million!”
"What's wrong?"
General Zhang Fu rushed in and shouted.
Zhu Di was awakened by this sound!
He hurriedly urged the surrounding guards to leave.
Then, he said to Zhang Fu,"It's fine. Go and inspect your military camp."”
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Zhu Di sat there and looked at the letter in his hand. He could not hide the surprise on his face. He could not help but mutter to himself happily,"Alright! Alright! This child is really my great fortune. He has really far exceeded my expectations. This is no longer an unexpected joy. You have given grandfather a huge surprise!”
As he spoke, Zhu Di shouted at the guard,"Bring me another bowl of wine. I want strong wine!”
"Understood!"
Zhu Di looked at the letter in his hand again. Every word in this letter from his boss seemed to be different. Zhu Di was never tired of reading it. The more he read, the more he liked it. The contents of the letter were especially pleasing to the eye!
Zhu Di had never expected this!
This grandson of his could collect so much tax for him, and it was pure tax silver without any physical collateral.
"This kid is a genius! With him, I can conquer a territory even bigger than the previous dynasty…cough…cough! Hahaha!" Zhu Di was so excited that he started coughing!
The letter also mentioned a military expenditure of 20 million taels.
With this military expenditure, he had to send Arutai even further away to eat grass!
"Hahahaha, good! Wine, wine, quickly bring the wine over. I'm in a good mood, I'm in a good mood! Hahaha, come, I'll pour you a bowl too. You've been with me for ten years, come and drink with me!”Zhu Di laughed heartily at the guard.
