On this day, the court will be a little depressing, and a large group of Zijing officials were discussing and speculating about what happened before the court, until Zhu Yunwen sat on the golden chair with a smile on his face.

"All of them have a calm face."

Zhu Yunwen was keenly aware that the atmosphere in the hall was a little sluggish, so he joked with a smile: "It seems that Yan Qing's ringing of the bell last night scared you, Yan Qing, you have to invite the big guy to have a meal and suppress your mind." ”

"What Your Majesty said is extremely true, and the minister is ashamed."

As soon as the two of them joked, the atmosphere in the hall became a lot more lively, but everyone was still full of curiosity and asked the doubts in their hearts.

"Ugh."

Zhu Yunwen sighed and said: "Everyone knows that the imperial court won the war in India and captured countless war booty, baggage and grain, and for this reason, the imperial court also sent sea ships to load, but who knows, most of this batch of grain has rotted and moldy, deteriorated and inedible, Yan Qing learned about this and hurriedly searched for it."

I am afraid that after this batch of grain enters my Ming Dynasty, it will be eaten by the people and hurt my health, so I ordered that all the inedible food should be burned, and the amount should be about one or two million stones. ”

The real situation naturally can't be said, the common people are not Yang Shiqi and Yan Zhenzhi, they will not think of the harm of this batch of grain after entering, they will only see the imperial court burning hundreds of millions, so what has the imperial court become in the eyes of the people, especially in the southwest and northwest regions?

As a last resort, Zhu Yunwen, the emperor, had no choice but to come forward to tell this lie, of course, Yan Zhen would come straight to the top of the black pot in the back.

Even if the number of hundreds of millions of stones was lied to one or two million, there was an uproar in the court, and everyone was distressed and had difficulty breathing.

It's too extravagant, too extravagant.

"Don't mention these sad things, when I mention them, I feel sad."

Quickly diverted this matter, Zhu Yunwen coughed lightly and got down to business.

"This India has decided, in the future, the annual transportation of grain in our Ming Dynasty is afraid that it will be like mountains and seas, I am afraid that more grain will hurt the peasants, and harm the people, so I plan to temporarily return farmland and expropriate a part of the land, but the expropriation of land is related to the people's livelihood.

Elder Yang Ge made a suggestion to me, first carry out a pilot project in Sichuan, Sichuan has few people, and the matter of land acquisition will not hurt too many people, but if there is a problem later, with the power of the imperial court, it will naturally be able to help me, so today's court meeting, I and the cabinet have some things to explain, and I hope that after the ministries know about it, they will come up with the corresponding governance regulations as soon as possible. ”

Dozens of people took out the small notebooks they carried with them, which has become a necessary process for every court meeting.

After Zhu Yunwen and the cabinet made up their minds about major events in many countries, the role of the big court meeting was for a group of people to listen and memorize, and then retreat from the court to implement it.

Gags, impeachments, and war of words have not happened for a long time, and the work efficiency has increased a lot.

"The first thing is that the Ministry of Industry sent a commissioner to Zigong Salt Well in Sichuan Province to study how to expand production, and the request of the Ministry of Industry and the Cabinet is to make Zigong's salt output reach more than ten times the current output, to ensure that the four provinces of Suchuan, Yunnan and Guizhou can achieve self-sufficiency in salt, and how many salt workers are needed for the expansion or what external objective difficulties need to be solved, the Ministry of Industry will issue a written investigation and submit it to the cabinet.

The second thing is that Sichuan is temporarily returning farmland to farmland, and the planned number of acres of farmland to be returned is 5 to 8 million mu, and these fields will be expropriated by the state, but it should be remembered that when informing the Sichuan political envoy to the Yamen, it should be emphasized that this is a temporary return of farmland.

There are two compensation schemes for returning farmland to the people: one is a one-time compensation, which is purchased by 20 percent according to the standard of market price, and the other is 2 taels of silver per mu of land every year.

The third thing is that the imperial merchant and the household department jointly set up a brewery.

Fourth, the household department took the lead in Henan and Hebei to set up breeding farms.

Fifth, the Ministry of Education should speed up the opening of more schools, with a plan of 1,000 schools in five years, and the number of school meals will be changed from one meal a day to three meals a day.

Sixth, all production units such as salt, oil, sauce and vinegar, and handicraft workshops across the country are exempt from taxation, and all profits are no longer taxed, and special taxes on provincial markets are also temporarily suspended.

Sixth, the household department took a bank loan of 100 million yuan to invest in the current commercial market to buy vegetables, melons and fruits and other economic crops at high prices.

Seventh, the General Staff purchased a batch of conventional armaments such as armor, knives, axes, bows and spears from civilian ironworks and smelting factories.

Eighth, the household department will implement a deficit economic policy this year and next, and the expenditure of the imperial court must exceed more than 30 percent of the estimated annual revenue.

The ninth thing, the five regions of Duogan, Sichuan, Yunnan, Guizhou, and Guangxi, from today to the sixteenth year of Jianwen, all grain is exempted.

For the time being, let's make additional corrections when new problems are found over time. ”

The nine things that Zhu Yunwen explained made the court in an uproar.

Any of these things are a lot of money.

In India, in addition to grain, how much war booty did the imperial court capture?

Of course, they don't know how much gold the North Delhi Sultanate has accumulated over the years.

At present, the amount counted by the household commissioner after arriving in India is already dozens of times that of all the gold reserves in the Ming treasury.

The ranks of this horse army have not yet been unified in the south.

Because Sichuan is a pilot province, it is also the province with the most preferential policies and efforts from the imperial court.

Zhu Yunwen and the cabinet have made up their minds to do their best this time to realize the transformation of half of Sichuan's homesteaders, and how to achieve this lies in the sixth and seventh things that Zhu Yunwen explained.

After returning to farmland, the yeoman farmers in Sichuan can receive a high subsidy from the state, which is equivalent to becoming a demolition household.

After getting the money, these people can engage in production in other fields, they can engage in handicraft workshops, fruit and vegetable planting, and if they are the kind of people who live a down-to-earth life, they can also save the money and go to the expanded salt wells to become workers.

If you have some skills, breeding giant pandas can be regarded as a profitable livelihood.

This little thing King Chu has a thin waist, even the emperor Zhu Yunwen is raised in the palace, and there are not a few dignitaries and princes in Nanjing, and there are not a few people who are raised in the family, and one is bought from Sichuan, how can it cost thousands of taels of silver.

As for the third, fourth, and fifth things that Zhu Yunwen explained, he began to find a way to consume food.

Wine-making and breeding are large consumers of grain, and the establishment of schools and the provision of three meals a day is to create a large number of off-production groups, and make this group get high-quality education, which can become the mainstay of the new Ming society in the future.

After all these things, Yan Zhenzhi calculated an account for Zhu Yunwen, and the imperial court wanted to reserve about fifteen million stone of grain for emergency use, which made Xia Yuanji's face look a little better.

I was able to burn less.

Regarding the disposal of Indian grain, Zhu Yunwen's attitude is very clear.

That is the consumption left for the consumption of demand in response to the domestic transformation of the Ming Dynasty, as much as it can consume, it will be retained, and all the excess will be burned.

It will not be until the Ming Dynasty can be completely consumed that this extremely extravagant behavior in Xia Yuanji's eyes will be stopped.

After these items were explained, the central ministries soon came up with specific administrative plans one after another, submitted them to the cabinet for approval, and then a team of 100 people left Beijing and rushed to Sichuan.

A national change concerned about the complete transformation of the old empire of the Ming Dynasty has begun.
