For the people of the Ming Dynasty, the feeling of war in the north is not very deep, especially the people living in Beijing, but some old people still remember the defeat of Tumubao, it was really miserable, the people who defended the capital were panicked, and the capital was almost unable to keep it.

The slogan of Zhongxing Shengshi was naturally shouted out, if this is not ZTE, then what is ZTE?

Although the cattle and sheep transported from the northwest have not yet arrived, but a lot of horses have been transported and sold, the mule and horse market in the capital is also very lively, many people talk about how cheap the cattle and sheep in the northwest are, how many cattle and sheep His Royal Highness the prince has caught, all of them are sold cheaply, many people are envious, and they can't wait to go to the northwest to dump a batch of them.

Of course, it's more about the court's reward for the Black Dragon Army, because there is already news from the court.

Heavy compensation for those who died in battle, heavy rewards for meritorious service, not to mention others, cut off the head of a Tartar, reward forty taels of silver, how many eyes do you blush with this reward? So the prestige of the Black Dragon Army has increased greatly, of course, it is more of the people's enthusiasm for enlistment, once they join the Black Dragon Army, even if they go to the northwest, they can also get a lot of net worth.

Such emotions were brewing in the capital, and when Zhu Houzhao led the army back to Beijing, this mood reached its peak.

Zhu Houzhao didn't go to the ceremony of sacrificing prisoners, he was the prince, and it was not suitable to steal the limelight, so he gave it to Wang Shouren, this time Wang Shouren made such a contribution, and the fire screen was also caught by him, so it was just right for him to go, Zhu Houzhao stood directly beside his father Zhu Youzhang, and attended the ceremony as the prince, and with the follow-up reward, it took three days to stop.

Of course, there will be a commendation ceremony and a memorial service within the Black Dragon Army later, and this Zhu Houzhao is going to participate, the same as before.

After working for more than half a month, Zhu Houzhao was able to finish all these things, and he could finally relax and take a breath.

Looking at his son who came over, Zhu Youzhu said with a smile: "Look at your appearance, you have to pay attention to rest, at a young age, your body bones are very important!" Saying that, Zhu Youzhu also greeted He Neng, who was standing beside him: "Wait a minute, choose a little supplement and send it to the prince, let them serve it well." ”

Zhu Houzhao hurriedly smiled and arched his hand: "Father Xie, Erchen is fine, that is, he has been busy for a while, and it will be fine after this while. Saying that, Zhu Houzhao laughed first: "This time the northwest has won a big victory, I want to come to the northwest to be stable for a few years, but the son is still worried that the little prince will retaliate!" ”

The so-called little prince is naturally Dayan Khan, now Dayan Khan is in full swing on the grassland, and he is busy unifying the grassland, and this incident happened, this is a blow to his prestige, if he retaliates with the soldiers, Zhu Houzhao is not surprised at all.

"Do you still have to say that?" Zhu Youzhu glanced at his son and said with a smile: "I am already ready to send an order to the Nine Sides, let them step up their guards, and don't give the Tartars a chance." Speaking of this, Zhu Youzhu himself laughed first, and then said: "If they dare to come, it is okay to give them a ruthless time, and then they will know that they are powerful." ”

Looking at his father's appearance, Zhu Houzhao sighed lightly, he also knew his father's thoughts, such a big victory was enough to make his father proud.

However, Zhu Houzhao also knows that there are too many problems in Daming, and such a big victory can easily become a flash in the pan. The current Daming Yanzheng looks at a lot of money every year, but it is really not much, plus the money of his strange Zhai, it is just to support the black dragon army in front of him.

Although it will cost less money in the future, it is also very difficult to increase the number of Black Dragon Army.

If you want to change the conscription system, you need more money, so the root is still in the money, if you don't change the conscription system, the armament of the Ming Dynasty will be finished sooner or later, and the Black Dragon Army built by yourself will also decline sooner or later, isn't this the case with the Qi family army in the future? So this time Zhu Houzhao is ready to start with money, what is the most money? There is only one answer, and that is Diding Silver.

The so-called land silver is to spread the land into the mu, and it is very difficult to restrict land annexation in this era, but there is no need to restrict it.

Once the land annexation is restricted, it will lead to the concealment of land, and the trend of cash will also prevail, and the imperial court will not be able to collect taxes from the land. In this era when land is the main means of production, if the imperial court cannot collect land tax, then where will the imperial court get the money? If Zhu Houzhao wants to change the tax system, then the first thing to do must be the land tax.

Later generations also left a good way, that is, the gentry paid grain and apportioned to the mu in one piece, abolished the poll tax, and only collected taxes according to the land.

People who don't have land don't pay taxes, and people who have land pay taxes, which is apportioned into the mu, not collecting poll tax, not afraid that you have more land, it doesn't matter if you have more, just pay taxes. The development model is similar to that of the big farmers of later generations, you just pay the money. Although the population of Daming is large now, it is not so much that the land is not enough.

If the land is really not enough, then carry a knife to grab, fight, and occupy, is the land of the entire earth not enough?

The officials and gentry in the back paid the grain in one piece, and the solution was the problem of cash, and the officials did not pay taxes, which led to the trend of investing in cash, and the court could not collect taxes.

Whether you are a relative of the emperor, or you are a gentry official, even if you are a feudal king, you must pay taxes, and if you don't pay taxes, then clean you up. If these two policies continue, Zhu Houzhao believes that Daming's taxes will definitely explode, and Daming's money and food will increase to a very terrible point.

The Qing Dynasty is so rich, but all the money is used to repair the garden, but Zhu Houzhao will not use this money to repair the garden.

"My father is far-sighted, and naturally my sons and ministers will never be able to do it." Zhu Houzhao said with a smile, and at the same time thought about how to get his father to agree to his plan, but Zhu Houzhao had already made a draft and said directly: "Father, the son wants to make some changes to the Beijing camp when he comes back this time. Saying that, Zhu Houzhao's face also became serious.

Zhu Youzhu was stunned for a moment, and at first he still felt that his son was narrow, but looking at his son's serious appearance, he nodded and said, "Then you can talk about it!" ”

"Erchen wants to reorganize the Beijing camp, change the entire Beijing camp to the Black Dragon Army, and at the same time change the Beijing camp to a recruitment system, and at the same time change the entire five armies to the governor's mansion." Saying that, Zhu Hou looked at Zhu Youjiao: "I don't know what my father thinks?" ”
