Sure enough, hearing Zhu Houzhao's words, Zhu Youzhu suddenly became interested, and he didn't keep a straight face, but leaned in front of his son and asked, "Then have you calculated how much salt class there will be in the entire Ming Dynasty?" ”

"About 10 million taels a year!" Zhu Hou said as a matter of course.

"So much?" Zhu Youzhu seemed to be frightened and asked in disbelief.

Zhu Houzhao saw his father's appearance, and sighed lightly in his heart, the emperor did not have a clear understanding of the national strength of the Ming Dynasty, in fact, the national strength of the Ming Dynasty was increasing from beginning to end, but the wealth was not in the hands of the emperor. After the arrival of the Spaniards and the Portuguese, the smuggling trade developed greatly, and the national strength of the Ming Dynasty would increase.

In today's world, with money, Daming can smash other people's heads, coupled with a huge population base, Daming is the BUG of this era.

What a pity!

If Chongzhen's salt class is 10 million a year, it is just to throw the salt class to Liaodong to burn, and burn 10 million taels a year, you see how long Nurhachi and Huang Taiji can last. Daming is not without capable ministers, nor is it without good generals, but it has been delayed by a group of national moths, and it is urgent to remove the moths.

"Say it!" After Zhu Youzhu came back to his senses, his face opened his mouth again: "How much do you want this time?" ”

"At least one million taels!" Zhu Houzhao thought for a while and said: "Erchen wants to train the Black Dragon Army from the new, this will be an army that the Ming Dynasty has never had, and it will be organized and trained based on the Beijing camp, once the Black Dragon Army is formed, Erchen will replace the Beijing camp with the Black Dragon Army." The Jingying system is rotten, people are superfluous, and the sons will recruit the Black Dragon Army. ”

Listening to Zhu Houzhao's words, Zhu Youzhu looked at Zhu Houzhao with some embarrassment: "But what about those noble and hereditary generals?" ”

The proportion of this group in the Ming Dynasty is too large, Qi Jiguang is hereditary, and generals everywhere are like this, they are the biggest obstacle to military reform.

"Those who are obedient will be kept, and those who are disobedient will be cleaned up." Zhu Houzhao's eyes were cold, he was going to run forward with Daming, and it was naturally impossible to carry a load on his body. Once you start running, if you can help Daming run, you will naturally have to reuse it, and if you become a burden to Daming, you will naturally have to cut it directly.

Zhu Youzhu looked at Zhu Houzhao and said with a wry smile: "These people usually don't look at anything, and they don't do anything serious, but once they touch them, they are very difficult to deal with." ”

Zhu Youzhu has an understanding of this, these people are really too deeply connected, and it is no problem to deal with one occasionally, but once you move a bunch, there will be a problem, and this scale is very difficult to grasp.

"That's why Erchen wants to establish the Daming Martial Academy." Zhu Houzhao didn't go around the corner, and directly said his thoughts.

"Martial Academy?" Zhu Youzhu couldn't keep up with his son's train of thought, but he was also used to it, and his son often made some things he didn't understand, so he nodded and said, "Tell me!" ”

Zhu Houzhao nodded, and then said: "In fact, it is similar to Guozijian, the first batch of recruits in the Martial Academy is the son of Xungui and hereditary generals from all over the country, and the professors are not like Guozijian, but teach the method of military training and the strategy of the generals." Erchen has never understood that there are private schools and national prisons in various parts of the Ming Dynasty, but why is there no place for proud martial arts training? ”

"Once there is a martial arts academy, Daming can train a lot of generals, these people may not be able to become famous generals, but it will definitely be no problem to lead the army."

"The strict management of militarization, these people are trained as soldiers, lest these people be abolished at home, these people will join the Black Dragon Army in the future, and the court will only spend some silver. When recruiting people in the future, the number of meritorious soldiers can be expanded, and Enyin is not a direct official position of Enyin, but Enyin is enrolled in the martial arts academy. ”

Zhu Youzhu listened very carefully to what his son was saying, and soon he knew that this seemed to be somewhat feasible!

"Erchen wants to ask his father to be the mountain chief of the martial arts." Zhu Houzhao thought for a while and then said, "At that time, the nobles will definitely be very supportive." ”

Glancing at his son, Zhu Youzhu scolded with a smile: "Shaft!" ”

Zhu Youzhu naturally knew that his son was insincere, first of all, he was the emperor, and being the head of the martial arts academy would attract criticism, after all, these people would have the title of a protégé of the Son of Heaven. It's true that the nobles will support it, because this is an opportunity to get close to the emperor, an opportunity to hug the thighs. The nobles relied on the Holy Grace, how could they miss such an opportunity.

Those hereditary generals will also let their sons come, hoping that their sons will become dragons, and what is the point of waiting to take over their father's class? Where to stay for the rest of your life?

The emperor himself served as the school of the mountain chief, and he couldn't find an opportunity yet, how could he miss such an opportunity?

But Zhu Youzhu also knew that once he did this, the civil officials would fry the pot, and his son said this to make it clear that he wanted to retreat as advance, this is what he wants to be the mountain chief.

Is it appropriate to have a son?

Absolutely!

First of all, his son is the crown prince, the prince, and the attraction is greater than his own emperor to some extent, why do so many people participate in the succession, even if he knows that the end will not be good if he fails, but he is still willing to take risks, because the benefits are too great, from the dragon's work, that's really not to say, who doesn't want it?

Now that the prince is the head of the mountain, who doesn't want to be in the prince's team? The second is his son's record, in the Northwest War, his son has proven himself.

5,000 against 10,000, in the field, his son killed and killed nearly 8,000 people, and his ability to train troops was shocking.

In the end, the martial arts court involves military power, this is a very, very sensitive place, it is not appropriate for any courtier to grasp it, the prince is different, he is the prince, as long as he is not suspicious of the emperor, others will not be able to say anything. Do you suspect yourself? Not at all. Not to mention his own son, even if it is Li Shimin, if Li Yuan is only his son, will he still be in Xuanwumen?

Zhu Youzhu didn't worry about his son doing something, he reached out and patted Zhu Houzhao's shoulder, Zhu Youzhu said with a smile: "Same as before, I don't care, you can do it yourself." ”

Hearing his father's words, Zhu Houzhao knew that his father agreed, which made Zhu Houzhao breathe a sigh of relief, this matter was not too difficult for Zhu Houzhao to do this, seeing that his father was leaving, Zhu Houzhao hurriedly went up and grabbed his father: "Father, don't forget about money, your son doesn't have so much money to get this." ”

"The one million taels are in the treasury, you have to figure it out yourself." Zhu Youzhu was unmoved, just smiled and said: "I'm going to accompany your mother, you have approved the question book here, and ask me if you have any undecided." As he spoke, he patted Zhu Houzhao's shoulder with an expression of "I'm cultivating you".
