Chapter 12: Changes in the East Plant

"Father-in-law, the first village in the world was robbed by Dongchang! ”

Hou Zhu, the high-ranking iron god god ignored his eyes, put down the zhu pen in his hand, raised his head to look at Shangguan Haitang and asked lightly: "If you openly rob the merchant's property, no one will oppose the ministers of the DPRK and the central government?"

"The first village in the world is the property of 13,000, I don't know who spread the news of the death of 13,000, and there are no queens, the emperor naturally thinks about the billions of wealth of the 10,000 families. ”

"It is a pity that this time the emperor actually ordered that the property of ten thousand families be directly charged into the state treasury! Naturally, no one in the court or the central government objected to such a good thing. ”

Zhu Wuzhi stood up and slowly walked down the steps of the main hall.

"Directly into the treasury, my nephew is really sensible!"

Shangguan Haitang cautiously looked at his father-in-law's face and asked, "Then father-in-law, should we hand it over?"

"It is supposed that the ownerless property should be returned to the treasury, and I was ordered by the emperor to establish a dragon protection villa to protect the country and the people, so it is naturally impossible to violate the law and discipline. ”

"Cooperate with the East Factory, remember to hand over all the property of 13,000 to the treasury!"

Hearing his father-in-law's accentuated tone on the word 'all', Shangguan Haitang smiled confidently.

"Haitang understands that he will not let Dongchang take advantage of one or two silver!"

Then Shangguan Haitang's delicate brows curled, and he said with a bitter face: "Father-in-law, this time the emperor and Dongchang have changed so much, could it be that there is a ...... of Moyu behind it?"

Zhu ignored his hands behind his back and looked into the distance.

"If something goes wrong, there must be a demon, go and investigate!"

"Yes!"

......

Dongchang, in the room of the famous Cao Governor.

Yi Bai happily ate the delicacies that came up from all over the world, and his two paws stuffed things into his mouth without stopping, and Cao Zhengchun on the side was hungry.

Try to squeeze a smile out of your face and make an ugly sound.

"Uncle Moyu, these 10,000 families are really rich, we have copied almost 10,000 taels of property from the East Factory, but the treasury has never had so much money!"

"Some ministers in the DPRK and China even have a twist and turn to raid the homes of merchants all over the country, and when the time comes, the court will have money for whatever it wants, and the border army will not be short of money for wars, droughts, and floods!"

When Yi Bai heard this, he almost choked and rolled his eyes.

"What kind of fool is this, you go out to inquire about how many ministers of the DPRK and the Central Committee do not do business in their families? Otherwise, where will they be able to go to Baihualou to "wind and snow", and there are all kinds of "courtesy exchanges". ”

Cao Zhengchun thought about it, that big businessman did not have the support of the powerful people in the DPRK, just like Wan Sanqian could not have made so much money if it were not for the support of the Dragon Guardian Villa, this time the Dragon Protector Villa was a self-cut arm, and he was happy to think about it.

A chrysanthemum bloomed on Gonggong Cao's face.

"Little friend Moyu, what other good ideas do you have, although the Dragon Guardian Villa has suffered a lot of losses this time, the Holy Inner Treasury has not entered either!"

After sweeping away the food on the table, Yi Bai stretched his waist, standing straight on all fours, comfortable.

"Gonggong Cao doesn't care about his own net worth and life? How many eunuchs of all dynasties have died?"

Cao Zhengchun's smiling face was immediately put away and he glanced at him lightly.

"Everything I have is given by the saint, and the saint asks me to be a knife, and our family will put white knives in and red knives out, regardless of anything else!"

Yi Bai sneered in his heart, I'm afraid I don't dare to think about it!

The most important thing is that the eunuchs can only rely on the emperor, and the eunuchs without the emperor's support have only a dead end.

"Gonggong Cao, the treasury is rich, why not consider cleaning up the forbidden army in the capital, the emperor's safety is the most important, I believe those loyal ministers and righteous people will not object!"

Cao Zhengchun looked confused, the forbidden army in the capital is very powerful, others don't know, he doesn't know yet.

Eat empty salaries, drink the blood of soldiers, and some weapons are estimated to be sold for wine and drink, and the combat effectiveness is afraid that 10% of the combat effectiveness of his subordinates is not available.

What do you spend money on them?

But after all, after serving in front of the emperor for many years, I thought about it in my head, and instantly understood what Moyu meant.

The knife will be abandoned by the master, then I will hand the knife to others, and the enemy of my enemy is my friend.

Now Dongchang was sent by the emperor to fight against the Dragon Protector Villa and those Wenchen who supported the Dragon Protector Villa, so why not bring the military ministers over.

Since the "Tumubao Incident", the military commander of the DPRK and China has completely broken his backbone, and those border generals who want grain and grass must first give gifts to the ministers of the DPRK and China before they can get it.

Not to mention, any little imperial history dares to scold the powerful general of the unified army, Wu Xun has been bullied miserably over the years.

And those martial arts titles are all family inheritances earned by their ancestors during the Jing Dynasty, and they rest with the country, and now they need this knife the most.

Knowing what was going on, Father-in-law Cao was ready to leave.

Yi Bai's voice continued to come.

"It's useless for your father-in-law to ask for so much money, if you don't bring it in life, you won't bring it in death. ”

"Today's saint's character is the same as his father's, benevolent and old-minded, as long as you can control your own hands, there will be no problem in enjoying your old age, you don't have to defile yourself, give others a handle!"

"You know, the upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked, your little cubs, the reputation is really too bad! Just deal with it! The open gun is easy to dodge, and the hidden arrow is difficult to prevent, why don't Dongchang make a dark arrow and wait for the opportunity to move?"

After a pause, Gonggong Cao didn't say a word, but straightened up a lot.

"Thank you!"

Seeing that his partner was gone, Yi Bai hurriedly stood up and prepared to go to the Teaching Division to watch the cute girls play the piano and dance.

"I'm so tired! Thinking about this kind of thing is really not suitable for a house rat like me, I feel that most of my brain cells are dead, I want to eat well and make up for it! Fortunately, I used to read more novels, and I learned a lot of intrigues!"

......

Time is like a big river, flowing endlessly, and two years have passed in the blink of an eye.

The imperial court has undergone a sea change.

In the first year, in order to protect the emperor and protect the ministers, the emperor began to rectify the forbidden army in the capital.

Some people objected, some people supported it, and in the end it was successfully implemented, because several ministers who were fiercely opposed were cut down by the so-called thieves.

Emperor Zhengde established the Zhenguo Mansion and united Wuxun and imperial relatives from all over the country to enter commerce.

This matter was fiercely opposed by the ministers, and then many ministers of the DPRK and China invested a lot of money in it, and they became rich in harmony.

The establishment of a training base for 100 workers and the start of assembly line operations greatly reduced the cost of goods, and the high-level officials of the imperial court made a lot of money, and the employment system made the small life of the common people much better.

The emperor personally contributed two million taels of silver to build a new city and buy the surrounding land.

The large-scale use of cement, glass, and underfloor heating in the new city completely conquered the rich people who made money from the Zhenguo Mansion, and the real estate development around the new city made another profit.

Began to issue banknotes, established a low-interest loan and interest storage business in the bank, and encouraged commercial loans.

Cutting the domain, King Ning was dissatisfied and rebelled.

In less than a month, Emperor Zhengde was sharpening his sword, and the forbidden army in the capital had not yet been assembled, and Wang Yangming, the governor of Southern Jiangxi, quelled the rebellion and captured King Ning.

The remaining vassal kings obediently returned to the capital with their families, and the smart ones bought land to invest in business and became rich people, and the stupid ancestors spent their saved money to become commoners, and the imperial court reduced the supply of several million taels of vassal kings every year.

After that, the emperor decided to abolish the system of not paying taxes on land, and the ministers of the court and the central government were indignant and scolded Emperor Zhengde for not being a son of man and a faint monarch.

It was also introduced that people can receive high salaries on a fixed basis and cancel the benefits of exempting people from field tax, and those high-level ministers and martial artists have earned a lot, so they naturally don't care about that bit of field tax, and they can give people an explanation.

So many ministers agreed, and some big landlords naturally couldn't say that my family had a lot of land, so they didn't agree, so they had to agree to it.

The ranks of the forbidden army began to expand, martial arts began to spread among the army, and the emperor's authority increased day by day.

In the east factory, Jinyiwei entered the darkness.

There are fewer and fewer famous Confucians and ministers coming and going in Hulong Villa, and they are all busy earning a family business for their children and grandchildren, the mortgage is too expensive, and the Zhenguo Mansion is killing a thousand knives.

Yi Bai smiled and looked at the information on his claws, it was comfortable to cut people with a blunt knife.
