The poor finances of the Ming Dynasty are directly related to the emperor Zhu Yunwen, or the responsibility of Zhu Yunwen, the emperor's arbitrariness.

Because Zhu Yunwen is not a master who can live at all.

There is a saying in later generations that 'wealth is earned, not saved.' ’

Thrifty housekeeping produces a well-off, and only when you want to make money can you become rich.

It is precisely because of the influence of this atmosphere that Zhu Yunwen left an impression on the bureaucrats of the Ming Dynasty: that is, generous.

Soldiers' salaries, plus! Official, plus!

Even the projects of the imperial court and the migrant laborers found were doubled.

Money does not blow in the wind, and silver will not fall from the sky, and you will not even exploit the common people at the grassroots level, so what else can you rely on to feed an army of millions and hundreds of thousands of bureaucrats?

The bankruptcy of the state is not terrible, because it is enough for the state to be perfect, it still has a strong war potential.

John Bull in the 18th century and the little devils in the 20th century have both suffered from the crisis of national bankruptcy, and their choice is to plunder, rather than to recover by themselves, how quickly the plunder comes to money.

It's just that the little devil is not as smart as John Bull, the John Bull family is plundered in the cloak of civilization, and the little devil will only howl, carrying the banner of 'East Asian Co-prosperity' to carry out slaughter, and in essence, the difference between the two is also very big, John Bull is large, but he also knows to find allies for himself, such as the loyal ally Gallic chicken during the First World War.

And the little devil is simply a stunned young man, eager to offend the whole world, gambling on the fortune of the country at every turn, 'the rise and fall of the empire and this war', betting to win the First Sino-Japanese Naval Battle, the Battle of Lushun, and finally betting on Pearl Island.

The result of betting on red eyes is that the flower growers have stood up and become the second in the world, and he can only follow the Star-Spangled Banner as a dog.

At present, this juncture is simply a godsend, the Ming Dynasty has no opponents in Europe and Asia, coupled with a huge foundation, as long as a wolf government system is cultivated and the mark of sheep in the bones is erased, even if a few hundred years later, the civilization and morality of the people will decline slightly, but at least they will not be bullied by outsiders.

"Southeast Asia has gold and silver like mountains and seas, and there are tens of millions of labor slaves in Nantianzhu, using labor slaves to engage in construction, using gold and silver to promote development, and gathering the power of all countries in the world to support the Ming Dynasty, you can open an immortal dynasty."

This sentence was said by Zhu Yunwen to Zhu Di at the beginning, and the latter's brainwashed eyes turned red, and he couldn't wait to immediately draw his sword to plow and expand the land for the Ming Dynasty.

People are poor and think about change, and so is the country.

This group of first-class ministers of the cabinet opened their eyes every day to the fiscal deficit, and when they were anxious and did not know where to save money, they would take the initiative to ask the General Staff to go to war.

If nothing else, let's just say that tens of thousands of cattle, sheep and horses came to the grassland last year, how much silver are these things worth?

If the prairie is looted, it is not a fantasy that these livestock will be raised for a few years, so that the common people of Daming will have meat all of a sudden.

"Let's put the financial matter through and report it to you, not to complain to you, let alone to deduct your money."

Zhu Yunwen looked at the large number of nervous Jingguan under his eyelids, and said with relief.

"The imperial court has recently borrowed money to get by, but your money and the public funds of the various yamen will still not be in shortage, no matter how difficult it is, it is also me, and it is difficult to wait for you, I hope you can ensure that every copper plate of the imperial court is implemented and the country will spend the difficult times."

Everyone was awe-inspired, and they were busy bowing down to receive the order.

At this time, if corruption is caught, it will really be the end of the whole family.

"Next, let's discuss the matter of this year's imperial examination."

As soon as the words fell, Zhu Gaochi stood up and began to talk in detail about the plans and arrangements of the Ministry of Officials for the imperial examination this year.

The most important place to discuss is the selection of Jinshi policy examination questions, the last imperial examination of the "discussion of the southwest countries" brushed off a large number of ignorant students, creating a precedent for admitting a small number of Jinshi, this year's policy question, how to test.

The Four Books and Five Classics, the classics of the sages, can never be examined, because the emperor doesn't like it, and adheres to the principle of being an official who is evil at the top and evil at the bottom, so he still has to grasp current affairs and politics.

"What the officials mean, let's talk about Jiangxi's scholar movement last year."

As soon as Zhu Gaochi's proposal was blurted out, Hu Gen, the initiator of the Jiangxi Scholars Movement, impatiently stood up to express his support.

The use of the imperial examination to whitewash the Jiangxi scholars' movement, clarify the political legitimacy, and encourage outstanding students from all over the world to learn from Jiangxi not only affirmed the emperor's merits, but also pushed the influence of Jiangxi Shilin in the Ming Dynasty political arena to a new level.

It is really important to grasp culture and thought, this is like Kublai Khan's imperial examination in the past, every time he had to clarify the political legitimacy of Mongolia's destruction of the Southern Song Dynasty, he played with his life to splash the dirty water of the Southern Song Dynasty, and made the Mongolian iron hooves go south is the crime of hanging the people, asking for the people's lives, and it can be extremely brainwashing.

In the years when the Confucian family was the country's prince and the sacrificial wine, the thought was to help Kublai Khan whitewash, but he couldn't stand Kublai Khan's being coaxed by Ba Sipa, and he was unwilling to abolish the fourth-class system. Otherwise, if you want to overthrow Meng Yuan in a hundred years, you may not be able to do it.

"We must encourage and call on more scholars from all over the world to learn from the Jiangxi Scholars Movement!"

Xu Buji, the initiator of the Changshu bloodshed, also expressed his support: "Because all the people in the world are united, under the leadership of Your Majesty, our Ming Dynasty only created the miracle of defeating the sky and nature for the first time in history last year. ”

These two sycophants.

However, the current Da Ming really needs this kind of sycophant who has no bottom line, because they can help Zhu Yunwen brainwash Daming from top to bottom, and wash the power of thousands of people to gather on Zhu Yunwen, the emperor, so that Zhu Yunwen can pay tribute to that great man and get rid of all the old ideas.

"Elder Yang Ge, what do you mean?"

Although he had acquiesced in his heart, the process on face still had to go around for a while, so Zhu Yunwen kicked this question to Yang Shiqi, the number one sycophant.

"The minister seconded the proposal."

After Yang Shiqi finished speaking, he looked at Xie Jin, who came to his senses and bowed down and said, "The minister also seconded it." ”

Soon, all four members of the cabinet passed, and then all the officials in the palace seconded the proposal.

It's really rare that the court of the Ming Dynasty hasn't been so harmonious for many years, and the court is full of sycophants.

Zhu Yunwen looked at Zhu Gaochi happily and affirmed the latter's proposed topic this time.

In the end, the clan relatives are still reliable, and if they are thrown in the ministry for a few years, they can consider entering the cabinet.

"If you have any other things, if you don't have them, just retreat."

The ministers in the palace understood that the emperor had issued an order to expel guests, so naturally they did not stand up and talk nonsense without opening their eyes.

"Let's disperse."

Zhu Yunwen stood up, and a small eunuch ran in from outside the hall and bowed to the ground.

"Your Majesty, Northwest Military News."
