Chapter 154 Resource Integration

"Slave and maid knock to the Holy One." Zhou Quan came over soon, and as soon as he came in, he knelt down with a puff and bowed three times and bowed nine times.

"Alright, get up, don't pretend." Zhu Youxiao said angrily, it is strange to say, after ascending the throne and becoming the emperor, in front of these domestic slaves, he is really more relaxed than in front of the courtiers, when he was still the prince of the Taisun before, he didn't have this feeling.

Maybe that's why the emperor likes to use eunuchs, Zhu Youxiao secretly laughed at himself in his heart.

"Your Majesty, you are wronged, the slave maid is not pretending, it is really the emperor's wisdom and martial arts, the slave and maid are weak when they see it, and they can't help but kneel down." Zhou Quan immediately cried out for injustice. After being accepted by Zhu Youxiao, he quickly became familiar with it.

However, Zhou Quan was very discerning, and after only saying a few words, he immediately stopped talking, got up and stood aside quietly, waiting for orders.

"How is the Imperial Horse Supervisor's Huangzhuang Imperial Store organized?" Zhu Youxiao asked relaxedly.

"Back to the emperor, the slaves and maids have been sorted out, all kinds of fields have been re-measured, and the tenants have been pacified, and the slaves and maids also plan to take advantage of the New Year to send some New Year's goods, so that they can celebrate the New Year with peace of mind. The royal store is the same, they have all been cleaned up one by one, the moths and stupid insects inside have been pulled out, and the experienced shopkeepers and account rooms have also stayed. Zhou Quan talked eloquently without looking at the accounts, and explained clearly all the businesses under the command of the Imperial Horse Supervisor except for the forbidden army.

Zhu Youxiao nodded while listening, Zhou Quan basically did what he was told, and even did better in some places, making up for what he didn't think through.

"In this way, you will list the accounts of the imperial store and hand it over to Wang Wenyan, and you will mainly manage the land of the Huangzhuang in the future, and after Jinyiwei sorts out the confiscated land, you will hand it over, and these will also be managed by you."

Speaking of this, Zhu Youxiao paused, took a breath and continued, "When the time comes, you will put all the fields in place, and merge those that are close to each other to form a large farm, and concentrate manpower and material resources to operate and cultivate in a unified manner, which is also convenient for management." ”

"Slave and maid." Zhou Quan responded, then hesitated slightly, and asked, "Your Majesty, I don't know the rent for the coming year?" ”

"Rent ......." Hearing this question, Zhu Youxiao groaned.

There are many imperial villages in the palace, and there are many types, such as the queen mother's, the crown prince's, the emperor's, and the unsealed vassal kings, the number is very large. After Zhu Youxiao cleaned up the palace, these originally scattered Zhuangzi were integrated and brought together, unified and Zhou Quan was in charge.

And after this integrated statistics, Zhu Youxiao was taken aback, among the Jingshi and the Northern Zhili Prefectures, all the imperial villages added up to more than 15,000 tilts, only 5,000 tilts less than King Fu. And now, these imperial villages, plus the fields obtained from the raids everywhere, are more than the Fu King.

That's a huge amount.

With such a huge amount of land, it must be well planned.

"That's it......" Zhu Youxiao suddenly raised his head and said with burning eyes, "All the manors do not collect rent, and all the income from the tenants' cultivation belongs to them." ”

"Uh......." Zhou Quan's eyes widened, his expression was stunned and sluggish, and he looked at Zhu Youxiao with a stupid look.

"Haha, of course it's not for them to plant for nothing, the premise of not collecting rent is that they must farm according to my arrangement, and the income from farming can only be sold to me, and I will sell it uniformly." Zhu Youxiao explained with a smile.

"Whew...... scared the slave to death, and the slave thought that the emperor wanted to give them all the land. Zhou Quan patted his chest, looking frightened.

When he calmed down and thought about it carefully, he suddenly found that if this happened, the emperor would not only not be able to obtain the income from the land, but would also have to pay a large amount of silver for the purchase of the tenants' farming income.

"Your Majesty, these ....... slaves and maids really don't understand why they want to waive all the rents and give them the land to plant." Zhou Quan asked with a puzzled face, if he didn't figure this out, he was afraid that he would not be able to grasp the emperor's pulse in the future, and it would be difficult to act.

"Hehe, you don't understand, you don't need to understand, just do it." Zhu Youxiao smiled slightly, looking unfathomable.

This is actually one of his land reforms, but not as drastic. His rent-free premise is that he has the final say on what he plants, and the output can only be purchased by him, which means that he has grasped the output of raw materials and the source of production from the source.

Moreover, the emperor does not have to pay taxes, just need to ask the emperor for rent, and now the rent is exempted, and the things that come out are all their own, this kind of temptation is unimaginable in the agricultural dynasty of the Ming Dynasty. Although there are no yeoman farmers around Jingshi, but Beizhili has it, when the benefits of his place are spread, are you afraid that no one will come to donate the land?

As the pinnacle of the ruling class, as soon as the land is surrendered to his name, it is his. In this way, step by step, when the entire land of the world becomes such an imperial village, won't the agrarian revolution be completed naturally?

The land belonged to the emperor, and those elites naturally set their sights on other places as the basis of family heirlooms. In this way, the transformation and progress of society can be naturally promoted.

Of course, these are all Zhu Youxiao's ideas taken for granted, and whether they can be realized depends on another matter. At present, the most important thing for him is to grasp the root of his life, and he can't pin all his life on the grain, once there is a change, there will be a big problem.

"Okay, don't think about it with this, go and get the Huangzhuang right, don't make things go wrong for me." Zhu Youxiao waved his hand and asked Zhou Quan to go down.

"Your Majesty, the slaves and maids will live up to your trust, and of course let more people know that Your Majesty is merciful." Zhou Quan's mind turned around, and he finally thought of the matter of contribution, he thought that this was Zhu Youxiao's purpose to get more land.

"Well, go ahead and do it." Zhu Youxiao bowed his head, sure he guessed right.

"Next...... It's Wang Wenyan. Zhu Youxiao sent Zhou Quan away, and after resting for a meeting, he passed on the message and announced Wang Wenyan to enter the palace. He waited for a long time, and after about half an hour, Wang Wenyan entered the palace against the cold wind.

"If you are foolish, get Mr. Wang a hand warmer." Looking at Wang Wenyan's trembling figure, Zhu Youxiao immediately commanded.

With the stove in hand, Wang Wenyan's trembling body quickly calmed down, and the warm environment of the warm pavilion made his face a little ruddy, not as pale as he was just now.

"Sit down and talk." Zhu Youxiao kept the stool that Fang Congzhe had made just now, and motioned for the other party to sit down.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Wang Wenyan saluted, and then did it next to half of his buttocks. This is the general way of dealing with the emperor's sitting, and no one really dares to sit in front of the emperor.

"Now that the inner government has just been built, it needs Aiqing's full help." Zhu Youxiao was also unambiguous and went straight to the point.

"Your Majesty, please." Wang Wenyan was serious, listening seriously.

"The royal family itself has an imperial store, and now Red Pill has copied a large number of shops, and I plan to hand them over to you to set up a business, which will be used to operate the products in the Tiangong workshop." Zhu Youxiao started to talk eloquently.

"By the way, there is another matter, I plan to abolish the salt transportation envoys from all over the country, follow the precedent of the Tianjin salt factory, and take the salt industry of the whole country in my hands. Only by grasping this financial source can we support our reforms. He said with burning eyes, his eyes sparkling, almost shining.

Zhu Youxiao's front one heard Wang Wenyan was still a little flustered, but the latter errand was in his arms, he came from Tianjin, bringing a large number of documents and materials, most of which are written materials accumulated in the salt works over the years, all aspects are available, and all aspects are complete.

He has also heard of the emperor's ideas and ambitions, and if he wants to achieve these, he is absolutely inseparable from the support of huge financial resources, Wang Wenyan, who has presided over a party in Tianjin for five years, naturally understands how much profit is contained in these delicate white particles, and it is no exaggeration to say that if the salt of the whole world is in the bag, the income of 30 million taels of silver in a year is absolute.

In Beijing alone, the annual salt profit income is two or three million taels of silver, not to mention the world. With this idea, Wang Wenyan entered Beijing ambitiously.

"Please advise Your Majesty, in what capacity does Weichen act?" Wang Wenyan did not agree with a happy face, but first raised his own questions. In the words, he secretly changed his title, and the meaning was obvious, Emperor Boss, should you give us a background, you have worked hard for you for so many years, you can't always be white.

Wang Wenyan has not been in vain in the capital for these three months, and the reason why he dared to mention it like this is because he donated the background of a prisoner in the Guozi Prison, and with this layer of skin, there is no obstacle for him to become a general.

"Hmm...... As a replacement and change of the inner court, the inner government is not perfect at present, and it cannot use the previous official position," Zhu Youxiao pondered for a while, "For the time being, let's hang the name of the chief envoy of the five-rank inner government." Zhu Youxiao originally wanted to establish a system of the inner government, but then he thought about it, although the inner government is his private institution, but in this era when I am the country, the inner government is also a part of the government, and he still uses the official position of the nine grades, but the specific position title and operation mode are to be determined, and the following institutions are running down, and the superstructure is determined.

Now he gives Zhou Quan, Wang Chengen, Wang Wenyan, and Xu Guangqi the same names, the governor of Wupinnei, and uses this identity to manage the mess he explained.

After deciding, Zhu Youxiao glanced at him again and said meaningfully, "Fame and fortune are never stingy, but the premise is to do things well, Aiqing can understand?" ”

"Wechen understands that Wechen will live up to His Majesty's expectations and handle things properly." Wang Wenyan knelt down with a puff and made a generous statement with his head held high. He didn't care that the emperor could see his careful thoughts, he just wanted to show his desire clearly, and be a transparent person in front of the emperor, so that he could be reused.

It can be seen from the actions of the apocalypse after he succeeded to the throne that this is a master with a strong desire to control, and for such a person, only one or two people who are thorough are what he likes.

"Well, it's good to understand. Go down first, and go back and wait for my will. Zhu Youxiao gave a few more words of advice, and then asked Wang Wenyan to step down.

"Yes, Weichen retired." Wang Wenyan saluted and slowly retreated.

"It's been three months, it's time to take a look, that's the root of my perseverance in the world and change my life for another day." Zhu Youxiao looked to the west, with some excitement and hope in his heart, he hadn't seen him for three months, and he didn't know if there were any surprises.
