Chapter 182: Ask Daddy for money
returned to Xianyang Palace, Zhu Houzhao was temporarily idle, and the new salt law promoted by him was officially on the right track, and the rest was the secret music system. This time, the Salt and Iron Division implemented this policy, and once the secret music system of the three provinces is rolled out, this system should be able to be launched in the entire Ming Dynasty next year at the latest.
Once the secret music system is launched, there will be a vigorous official rectification in the Ming Dynasty, which is also what Zhu Houzhao hopes to see.
Zhu Houzhao vaguely remembers that when Zhang Juzheng was reforming, he vigorously rectified the administration of officials and implemented the law of examination.
Think about how big this is, these people are the staunch counterattackers of the reformers, and all the Wanli Emperors showed a little bit of opposition to the new law, and these people began to counterattack.
The difficulty of reform is not in the reform itself, but in the continuity and maintenance, the counter-offensive when the power is handed over, this is definitely the most common thing in the world, not to mention in the Ming Dynasty, even in some countries in later generations, the policy of overthrowing the predecessor after the new leader comes to power is also very common, which causes a major waste of resources, and it is countless.
Zhu Houzhao wanted to carry out the reform in his father's generation, and in his generation, it was to deepen the reform and consolidate his position.
This kind of fundamental institutional reform will not take a long time and several generations, and it is unrealistic to expect it to be achieved in a short period of time.
Taking a sip of tea, Zhu Houzhao put the teacup on the table, although he was very eager and wanted to launch the next reform plan, but Zhu Houzhao knew that it was not yet time. The salt administration needs stability, the secret system needs time, and the best thing now is to do nothing. It is necessary to settle down for at least two to three years before the reform journey can continue on its part.
"It's time to turn your attention to the Great Ming Martial Academy and the Black Dragon Army!" Zhu Houzhao said slowly.
"Your Highness, the Black Dragon Banner is ready and delivered!" Liu Jin walked in from outside, bowed down and said.
Zhu Houzhao nodded, and then said, "Let people get ready, and you can bring Wang Shouren to the palace." ”
Although there are many things that Zhu Houzhao wants to do, there are some trivial things that he still doesn't need to do, His Royal Highness the Prince. Wang Shouren is a very good candidate, Zhu Houzhao found that this Wang Shouren is really amazing, everything he explains, no matter how trivial and complicated, he can do it in an orderly manner.
Soon Wang Shouren came, the expression on his face was a little refreshing, since he went to the northwest, Wang Shouren was full of confidence in the prince of the Ming Dynasty, and he was also full of confidence in the Ming Dynasty. Compared to wanting to leave the East Palace before, now Wang Shouren's mind has changed, and the whole person is full of spirit.
"Your Highness!" Wang Shouren arched his hand at Zhu Houzhao, and then said, "I don't know what His Highness has to say when he comes to the ministers?" ”
"The Black Dragon Banner has been prepared, are you ready for the charter for the memorial service that was given to you a few days ago?" Zhu Hou looked at Wang Shouren and said.
Yes, Zhu Houzhao is preparing to hold a memorial service in the Black Dragon Army, this era attaches great importance to posthumous mourning, this practice is to thank these people for dying on the battlefield for the Ming Dynasty, and secondly, it can also gather loyalty. At the same time, it is also to show the living that Daming will not treat you badly, and will not treat these people who died in battle.
"Back to Your Highness, the memorial service has been prepared, but the minister thinks that there should be a commendation meeting first, and then a memorial service." Wang Shouren agreed, and then put forward his own ideas.
The memorial service and the commendation meeting are both to be held, but Zhu Houzhao is also quite hesitant to hold a memorial service first, if the memorial service is held first, then the atmosphere of the memorial service will be diluted a lot by the commendation meeting the next day. But if you hold a commendation meeting first, a memorial service, first celebrate and then grieve? Zhu Houzhao was a little entangled, but he had already chosen to hold the commendation meeting first.
didn't expect Wang Shouren to put forward such an idea at this time, and Zhu Houzhao naturally wanted to know what he thought.
Although it has been so long since he traveled through the Ming Dynasty, because of his thoughts, Zhu Houzhao still has a lot of ideas for later generations, and sometimes some ideas are out of date, in comparison, Wang Shouren is much stronger on this side.
"Back to His Royal Highness, the minister thought that the commendation meeting would be held first, and the memorial service would be held later, which could boost morale and inspire people." Wang Shouren lowered his head and said in a deep voice: "At the same time, it can also show that His Highness has not forgotten the sacrifices of the soldiers who died in battle, and His Highness values their sacrifices more, setting an example for those who come after." ”
Zhu Houzhao listened to Wang Shouren's words, nodded lightly, and then said, "Do what you say!" ”
"Yes, Your Highness!" Wang Shouren agreed, turned around and walked outside, and soon left the room.
"Go to Qianqing Palace!" Zhu Houzhao stood up and said to Liu Jin, who was standing beside him, since he is ready to start doing it, let's do it bigger, not to mention the Black Dragon Army, the Daming Martial Arts Academy will also be on the agenda. Zhu Houzhao is ready to build a strong army in three years, not to mention others, at least able to sweep the Hetao.
If Dayan Khan comes to attack, Zhu Houzhao can take this team to beat them out, and at the same time, he can win beautifully.
Zhu Youzhu was also drinking tea at this time, and after returning from outside the palace, Zhu Youzhu was in a good mood, as an emperor, he could be happy if he had money.
Seeing his son come in, Zhu Youzhang's heart sank, and his face sank, in Zhu Youzhang's opinion, his son must have come to ask for money. If the salt merchant can get the silver in place at one time, then it doesn't matter if he gives him one million, now it is only thirty percent, and Zhu Youzhu is naturally reluctant. Here you go? So how much do I have left? No, you have to cover your pockets.
Seeing his father's appearance, Zhu Houzhao was speechless, it seems that it is not easy to want his father's money!
Thinking of this, Zhu Houzhao's face remained unchanged, and he saluted Zhu Youzhu with a smile, and then sat down to talk to his father: "After returning to Xianyang Palace, Erchen remembered that there was one thing that he hadn't talked about with his father. Seeing that his father was still looking at him vigilantly, Zhu Houzhao sighed helplessly in his heart: "It's about the salt class." ”
"Erchen went back and calculated, the output of the Lianghuai salt field has now more than tripled, plus the salt that was hidden before, the output is more than three times higher than before, and the salt class should also be able to increase more than three times. In the past, the annual income of the Lianghuai Salt Farm was about 800,000 taels, but now the annual income of the Lianghuai Salt Farm alone can reach about 3 million taels, which is equivalent to the previous year. ”
