Prime Minister's Office, Java.

Near the sea, the ruling government had a large number of bureaucrats, of which the Prime Minister's Office was one of them, and then there were the offices of the ministries.

The implementation of working hours is 8:30-12:00 and 14:00-17:00, there is a rest day every week, put traditional Chinese holidays, so quite reasonable, from the mainland Zhu's company to the southeast of the Yan's company to work in the former Ming officials are beautiful, the former north in the middle of winter three watch days to go to the court is really unbearable to recall!

During the lunch break, Prime Minister Chen Zhenji and Finance Minister Chen Hebin drank tea and chatted together in the Prime Minister's Office. His office has a view of the consul government near the sea and the sea in the distance.

Chen Xinji said with emotion: "I think back then, we only had a wharf in Beigang, there were only 3,000 people, and the silver was less than 10,000, and we were almost robbed of the silver by your uncle!" ”

At the beginning, Yan Dashao took over, and his cheap father left hundreds of thousands of taels of silver for him, which was stored in the silver number of Yuegang in the mainland, but the silver number did not admit it, but Yan Dashao came to Yuegang in person, and under his personal charm, the silver number gave back the silver and became the start-up capital for the rise of the southeast province.

Chen Hebin couldn't help but wonder, or he mainly returned the money to Yan Dashao.

He was just a silver-trumpeted fellow!

Now he is the finance minister of the Southeast Province, and he is very high in the government, with a very high status, and everyone flatters him.

Chen Xinji continued: "At the beginning, we were short of money and stretched thin, but now our financial income has exceeded 10 million silver dollars, but we are still so poor, we are always short of money to spend!" ”

Chen Hebin said hesitantly: "This kind of money shortage method shows that our business is thriving. ”

Yes, the southeast government is short of money, and it is desperately lacking!

Millions of Chinese go to the South Seas!

That's tens of millions of silver dollars out of the treasury!

In the mainland of the Ming Dynasty, it costs money to recruit immigrants, and the daily expenses of the office do not cost money to seal the brochure? The "introduction fee" of 600 copper per ding is sufficient.

The corrupt officials who bribed the local government asked for money, and the people who settled down to sign up for immigration asked for money, and you didn't see that the price of rice in Taiyuan, Shanxi Province was one bucket and three taels, although it was a price hike, and the cost of the southeast government was definitely low, but it also asked for money.

Then the expenses on the road, arriving at the dock, taking the sea boat, the charter fee, the cost of the journey, the pick-up along the way, the port city, the supply and water supply of the ship.

Arrived in Java, and then there was the training fee, the settling-in fee, the government support fee, and so on.

It can be said that the new immigrant has been spending money for him since he entered the office on the mainland side, and he is already flowing.

……

Anyway, it's money, money, money, and the southeast government collects more money and spends more, and the government's finances have been in a tight state for a long time.

In the morning, Chen Hebin approached Chen Xinji and said that he had no choice, he had too much expenditure and couldn't balance his finances!

The finance minister lamented: "What should be cut has been cut, and everything that can be saved has been saved. ”

The southeastern province spends a lot on building ships, and every year it spends millions of silver dollars on the manufacture of battleships, cruisers, and cruise ships, and recently it is still making landing ships.

In his opinion, this money can still be saved, save money, and build ships after relieving himself.

The main income of the southeast government is commercial tax, water introduction, dividends of state-owned assets, etc., the expenditure is military spending, the welfare of the people, the expenditure and salary of officials, etc., the biggest part is the cost of building ships and guns, and it has been in a state of imbalance for a long time, Yan Dashao is still talking that his guy is not thick enough and hard enough, and he wants to build a new level of battleships, more artillery, and 32-pound guns!

In recent years, it seems that there are fewer opportunities to make a windfall, Chen Xinji and Chen Hebin have bad thoughts together, and carefully look at the nautical chart which guy is worthy of a vote from the Southeast Mansion, causing many rulers around to be fighting, and some people even catch a cold!

As soon as they went to work in the afternoon, Chen Xinji and Chen Hebin went to the ruling government to see Yan Dashao and asked to discuss the financial expenses with him.

With their identities, they were passed in as soon as they arrived, and the two paid tribute to Yan Changwu, and everyone sat on the sofa together.

Yan Changwu and Chen Xinji both buried themselves in the leather sofa, while Chen Hebin only dared to sit halfway.

The Archon's office was cooler than outside because of the advanced water pipe cooling system in place!

In other words, steel water pipes are installed in the building, driven by wind or drops, and the water flows continuously to cool down.

This kind of technology belongs to the natural **** government also has a set, but the cost is very high, after all, steel is still valuable, but the people have also begun to imitate this water pipe cooling system.

Working in it, soaking in the cold, is far more comfortable than a room without a system.

On the sofa, after Yan Dashao listened to Chen Hebin's report, he asked Liang Chen: "Do you have any solutions?" ”

Chen Xinji grinned: "Simple, do happy events, the best of both worlds!" ”

To do a happy event for Yan Dashao, he has a beautiful woman into the room, and silver into the account, how good!

Yan Dashao, this guy married like the third brother------ he asked for a lot of dowry, and if he was sold, he should be able to balance the finances.

Only Chen Xinji dared to say this, and Chen Hebin said: "Issue treasury bonds and borrow money!" ”

The change from forcibly collecting taxes to borrowing money to repay debts is a kind of progress.

Yan Changwu greeted and said, "Take the sea chart!" ”

The attendant took the chart, and he looked at it and said, "I have a better idea!" ”

"What's the idea?" Liang Chen hurriedly asked.

Yan Changwu's finger poked heavily at a spot on the chart, and when he looked at it, he landed on Borneo, that is, on the Kalimantan Peninsula where Luzon had driven south.

Kalimantan Island is the third largest island in the world, with an area of 743,300 square kilometers, belonging to the tropical rainforest climate, lush vegetation, located in Southeast Asia, bordering the Java Sea in the south and the South China Sea in the north.

Ninety percent of the island's area is forested and rarely developed, and there are a series of small Sudan kingdoms dotted along the sea, with some primitive tribesmen living in the forests.

The small Sudan kingdom includes Machen, Sanfa, Sucadana and Landak, etc., due to the strength of the southeast province, all the small Sudan kingdoms are very respectful to the southeast province.

Among them, the Sucadana rulers are loyal to the Mataram Kingdom in Java, so the Southeast Province has an opportunity to take advantage of it, which is nothing more than the Mataran Kingdom "ceding" their rule to the Southeast Province.

From then on, Sukkadana had to change everything, and was eventually annexed by the southeastern province.

If you don't, do it!

As for the other Sudanese countries, there are also a lot of excuses to go to war.

However, Chen Xinji was not satisfied, he frowned and said: "It's not a problem to attack them, but they are too small and not very rich!" I think we should do this! ”

This guy has become the head of the government, a decent person, but the logic is still the idea of a pirate, there is no money, what to do?

Just go and rob it, to find the richest one to rob, he proposed to rob the Aceh Sudan country!

Aceh, located in the west of Sumatra, controls the trade of the Strait of Malacca, is strong, and has become a commercial distribution center in the Malay Archipelago.

"Rob him!" Chen Xinji said viciously.

With sharp weapons and murderous intentions, is it possible to raise so many battleships every year?

Facing the close ministers, Yan Changwu did not hide from them and said: "Borneo must be controlled, one is to strangle our transportation arteries, and the other is to ......."

He smiled and said, "There is gold in Borneo, there is a lot of it!" ”

After hearing this, Chen Xinji's eyes burst into golden light, and his spirits were greatly lifted!

He jumped up from the sofa and called the attendant directly: "Find Mr. Chen De, Gan Hui, and Mr. David, and prepare to work!" ”
