Chapter 335: The Current Situation in the Country

"Your Majesty, it seems that our Royal Council has to be busy again, hehe!"

Seeing Li Dingguo leave happily, Yan Yingyuan smiled on the side.

However, this kind of busy work should make it more violent!

As the chief manager of the Ming Empire, he can fully describe it as a daily manager, and for more than a year, he has been busy almost every day.

However, seeing that the Ming Empire has now developed to an extremely gratifying point, the speed of development is not only not slowing down or stagnating, but is getting faster and faster, he is happy in his heart.

Judging from the current situation, a month later, it is a good opportunity for the Ming Empire to dominate the world.

In the case of the Southern Ming Dynasty and the puppet dynasty, the people are now in discouragement, and if the pace of reunification is delayed, it will not be beautiful, and it will pay a heavy price, and the gains outweigh the losses.

After the unification of the whole country, the work of the Royal Council will be much more formal, and the efficiency of work will be greatly improved.

Without the various schemes against the domestic enemy, it will invisibly reduce a lot of unnecessary workload, so that the decrees of the Royal Council can be implemented in a unified manner.

That's excellent.

"Your Majesty, at the end of this afternoon, all the trophies on the two hundred transport ships can basically be unloaded, will you return to the capital today?"

If it weren't for the fact that he had received too much loot from the Wa Kingdom this time, he would not have rushed over in person.

He was a little uneasy about handing over so many belongings, treasures, and antiques to others to be responsible.

In addition, he also wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to go out of the capital and take a look around in the various areas directly under the jurisdiction of the Ming Empire along the way, so as not to let anyone disobey the yang and the yin and make trouble in secret.

Although there are 100,000 intelligence bureau personnel of the Central Intelligence Agency, monitoring every move of the Ming Empire everywhere in the country, manpower is sometimes poor, and there are always some big rats that will emerge.

No, when he traveled all the way out of the capital, he found no less than ten officials, big and small, taking advantage of the great development of the Ming Empire, one by one to fill their pockets and bring disaster to the people.

For this kind of people, Yan Yingyuan has nothing to say, and they will all raid the family and exterminate the three clans.

Whether it is a troubled era or a prosperous era, it is the best policy to make a heavy punch to completely eradicate this situation of digging the foundation of the Ming Empire.

Yan Yingyuan, like Zhu Youxiao and Li Dingguo, is a person who can't tolerate any sand in his eyes, and he can't look down on that kind of corrupt officials the most.

To tell the truth, the civil and military officials of the Ming Empire are already excellent.

Even compared with the previous dynasties, the late Northern Song Dynasty, which had the highest salary of all the imperial courts, was not far behind.

Just like Li Dingguo, Yan Yingyuan, and Sun Chuanting, the three of them, each of them have more than 1,000 taels of silver per month.

This is equivalent to the monthly salary of one hundred thousand yuan in later generations, and under the current policy of the Ming Empire, it will not be spent at all.

Buying land is impossible to buy no matter what.

All the people of the Ming Empire only have the most basic five acres of land per person, which is one of the basic national policies.

If you want more, you can only exchange military achievements and contribution points for the empire.

Moreover, even the most awesome minister, the limit of the land that can be legally exchanged for is only 10,000 acres.

And this limit, in the future Ming Empire, can be reached, will definitely not exceed 100 people.

Buy a store, that's fine.

But the problem is that in today's Ming Empire, almost half of the medium and large stores are directly under the jurisdiction of the royal family and the imperial court.

If you are not a business genius, even if you buy a few large shops, how can you compete with the royal family and the imperial court? Dumbo eBook

The current Ming Empire, small and medium-sized merchants, is easy to survive, but those large and super-large merchants are basically gone.

Therefore, today's civil and military officials basically can't spend their monthly court salaries.

The current Daming Royal Bank has officially operated in all the direct jurisdictions of the empire, and the new generation of currency of the Ming Empire has also been fully popularized.

In the past, gold, silver and copper coins have been banned from circulating in all areas directly under the jurisdiction of the Ming Empire, and the financial affairs of the empire are completely on the right track.

The endless gold and silver, all the civil and military officials, basically stored it in the Ming Royal Bank.

Today's regularized banks are not worse than those of later generations, and they are even more complete and reliable.

Saving money in the Royal Bank is not only convenient, it will not be lost, but there is also interest to be taken every month.

With the personal jurisdiction of Xiaohong, a high-level intelligent light brain, there will be no problems at all in the various banking businesses of the Ming Empire.

Even for the sake of being lazy, this Xiaohong has created two sets of primary intelligent light brains to specifically manage the household registration and various banking businesses of the Ming Empire.

The newly issued new Imperial fine coins are deeply loved and welcomed by the general public of the Empire, and are much easier to use than the original gold, silver and copper coins of different colors.

Now the Ming Royal Bank, the first batch of new coins worth 400 million taels of silver, is enough to cope with the current currency circulation in the Ming Empire.

Yan Yingyuan's speculation that after eradicating and cleaning up all the Jiangnan puppet dynasty and the Great Liang State, and unifying the whole country,

At that time, it was estimated that it would be necessary to issue coins with a total value of about one billion taels of silver in order to enable the Ming Empire to develop completely and healthily.

That's not a problem.

Now in the treasury and the royal treasury, all the gold, silver and copper coins add up to more than this number.

In the past, after Zhu Youxiao cleaned up the whole city for the first time in the capital, he got about half of it, and later he casually copied the gains of several provinces, and he did not lose the harvest of the capital.

This is normal.

The Ming Empire was not without money before, but most of the money was collected by those wealthy families, wealthy businessmen, and wealthy people.

Moreover, as the Westerners came to the southern coast of the Ming Empire, a large part of the gold and silver mined at home and from all over the world also flowed into the Ming Empire.

Most of these gold and silver were used to trade raw silk, tea, porcelain, silk and other goods of the Ming Empire that were in short supply in the West.

In fact, the current Ming Empire has much more gold and silver treasures stored in the country than any dynasty!

It's just that these massive riches are basically in the hands of private individuals and are stored in large quantities.

Before Zhu Youxiao was reborn, the country was so poor that he couldn't even pay his military salary, but those wealthy families and wealthy businessmen were really rich!

How could such a deformed Ming Empire not fall in history?

It's strange if you don't die in the country!

Therefore, if not long after, after Zhu Youxiao unified the Ming Empire, he would wipe out most of the heinous families, wealthy businessmen and wealthy, and the money he obtained would definitely be an astronomical amount.

If nothing else, it is definitely not a problem to double the current wealth.

Yan Yingyuan also knows this, and now that he is in charge of the internal affairs of the Ming Empire, of course he is happy to see it happen, and even a little impatient.

Today's imperial court is very rich, but who would dislike their own money?

Gold, silver, treasures, grain and grass materials, whether for the court or individuals, of course, the more the merrier.

Even if you don't use it, it's a great thing to take it in.
