Chapter 174: My heart is black
There are actually many Zhongxing emperors in history, and the most famous should be Liu Xiu, the Guangwu Emperor of the Han Dynasty, who is known as the son of the plane, and Liu Xiu, the Guangwu Emperor, can be said to be the only emperor in history who has both the founding and the Zhongxing.
It is naturally inappropriate to compare Zhu Youzhu to Liu Xiu, Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty has not yet reached that point, after all, Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty is the world he conquered after Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty. On the contrary, it is Liu Xun, Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty, which is more suitable for Zhu Youzhang.
Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty was the first Zhongxing since the Qin Dynasty, and his Zhongxing made outstanding contributions to the 800-year reign of the Han Dynasty.
Speaking of the Han Dynasty, everyone may be most familiar with Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. It is true that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was indeed a great king, but during his tenure, the Han Dynasty fought in all directions, and almost exhausted the national strength restored after the "rule of Wenjing". Although the social contradictions of the Han Dynasty were alleviated through the efforts of Emperor Zhao of the Han Dynasty and Huo Guang, it was indeed Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty who really allowed the Western Han Dynasty to achieve Zhongxing and once reach its prosperity.
After Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty came into power, he made great efforts to govern the country, recuperated with the people, restored the country's vitality, and implemented the Han family system; Surrender the Xiongnu to the outside world, pacify the Xiqiang, establish the Western Regions Protectorate, and set up a long position to close the position. Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty is also good at cultural governance and martial arts, during his reign, the national strength of the Western Han Dynasty reached its peak, and the four seas were leveled.
Zhu Houzhao's metaphor for his father is naturally appropriate, you must know that Emperor Xuan of Han has a very high evaluation.
Zhu Youzhu glanced at his son, although he knew in his heart that this was his son's sycophant, but he still felt very comfortable, stroked his beard, and smiled at his son's sycophant: "Then tell me, what a way to make up for the dead!" ”
I have been waiting for your words for a long time, Zhu Houzhao sighed in his heart: "Erchen thinks that if you want to train the barracks, you shouldn't train them all, but concentrate on doing big things!" Speaking of this, Zhu Houzhao immediately became excited: "The money and energy of the imperial court are limited, if they all do it together, then the financial resources and energy of the imperial court will not be able to take care of it." ”
"For example, if the imperial court takes out two million taels to train soldiers, then how much equipment can be added, how many war horses can be purchased, and how many city walls can be renovated if the money is distributed to Jiubian and Jingying?"
Two million taels seems like a lot, but it is not that much, because Da Ming is so big that I am afraid that I will not even be able to make a splash if I throw it in.
Zhu Youzhu looked at his son, and he didn't know what the expression on his face was, why did he want to beat his son so much? The opening is two million taels, do you think the two million taels of the imperial court are blowing from the wind? You must know that the imperial court has no money, and if the treasury comes up with these two million taels, it is estimated that the household department Shangshu will have to submit his resignation directly.
Now is not after Zhang Juzheng's reform, the current income of the imperial court is mainly grain, cloth, and taxes.
The main source of money for the imperial court was salt, and the tea tax was all tea, not money, and in this case, the imperial court was not loose at all.
In addition, the grain and cloth collected by the imperial court seem to be a lot, but in fact there are not many of them, and they are not enough every year. Although the son just made an analogy, it was obvious that the son was eyeing the salt entry silver again this time. The appetite is not small, and he wants two million when he comes up, and Zhu Youzhu thinks that his son is thinking about fart.
Of course, Zhu Houzhao didn't know what his father was thinking, and he didn't know that his father was worried about money, so he continued to talk there.
"Therefore, Erchen thought that the imperial court should reorganize the training camp in Beijing, and at the same time not increase the number of personnel, set up a new army, and select the best of the best." Zhu Houzhao waved his hand and said: "Adopt new tactics, new equipment, and new training methods, and use the veterans of the Northwest Battle this time as the backbone to build a cavalry of 30,000 people. ”
Listening to what his son said there, Zhu Youzhu listened with a serious face, and then nodded his head: "It's better to leave this matter to the emperor!" ”
"All the expenses will also be handed over to the emperor, so that the father will return the profits of the mirror to you, and the emperor will have to raise the rest himself." said that Zhu Youzhu looked emotional: "The emperor has grown up and knows that he has shared his worries for his father, this is very good, I am very relieved, I am very relieved!" As he spoke, he wiped his eyes.
When Zhu Houzhao saw this scene, the expression on his face was extremely exciting, he really didn't know what to say, father, you have learned badly!
It can't be like this!
I'm just a prince, you can't do this to me, I've made meritorious contributions to the Ming Dynasty!
What about the emperor who said yes and doubted the crown prince? If you say yes, you can't let the prince lead the troops? If you say yes, you can't let the prince be full-fledged? Zhu Houzhao began to doubt his life, and hurriedly took a step forward, and just wanted to say something, he was directly interrupted by Zhu Youjiao.
"Emperor!" Zhu Youzhu stood up and sighed and said, "Okay! Okay, in this way, I will send a decree to let people cooperate with you, it's good, my father has to go and talk to your mother. After saying that, Zhu Youzhu turned around and left, lowering his head and swaying his shoulders, as if he was restraining himself and not letting himself cry, but Zhu Houzhao felt very sad, because he felt that his father would laugh again.
I didn't even have time to say anything about the Imperial Martial Academy, so my father left directly with someone, for fear of saying anything!
Humming a little song, Zhu Youzhu came to Kunning Palace with his hands behind his back, and pit his son, it feels so good, no, what kind of pit is this, what is the child's money to keep for, it is better to take it out and do something, anyway, these will be his in the future. Thinking of this, Zhu Youzhu suddenly felt that it was taken for granted, as for the money in Zhu Youzhang's treasury and inner treasury, what? Is there money there? I don't remember.
Zhu Houzhao reluctantly returned to his Xianyang Palace, he was in a very bad mood, he was actually pitted, and he was so miserable, what is this called!
Steelworks, iron and steel ore, hiring workers, these are all things that Zhu Houzhao has to rely on selling mirrors to do, and the steel smelted is used to forge plate armor, this is all money, will the imperial court pay money for purchasing Zhu Houzhao's plate armor? Just look at what Daddy means, you are thinking about fart eating, give you money, you want to be beautiful. If he was burdened with the horse training, food and drink of the 30,000 army, Zhu Houzhao felt that he was going to go bankrupt.
Of course, the 30,000-person money court will still issue it, and that's all, the financial gap is very big!
Sitting on the chair without love, Zhu Houzhao nodded and beckoned Liu Jin over, and then asked, "How much money does this palace have now?" ”
Speaking of which, Zhu Houzhao really doesn't know how much money he has, he originally knew, but Zhu Houzhao is not in the capital these days, and he really doesn't know the income of the East Palace. Whether it is Qibizhai or other inputs, Zhu Houzhao is not very clear, but Zhu Houzhao believes that Liu Jin is clear, and he is now his big housekeeper.
"Back to Your Highness, there are 3,620,000 taels of silver in the treasury, as well as 760,000 copper coins and gold." Liu Jin hurriedly bowed and said.
It's just that before Liu Jin finished speaking, Zhu Houzhao interrupted Liu Jin, and he got up in disbelief: "So much? ”
"Back to Your Highness, there are more than 360,000 taels of Strange Zhai who sold stoves, more than 2.4 million taels of mirrors, and some of them were sent into the palace by Shouning Hou, about 300,000 taels of silver and 180,000 taels of copper." Liu Jin hurriedly explained the source of the money to Zhu Houzhao, and he was also very smacked, the money came too quickly.
The first thing Zhu Houzhao thought of was his uncle Shouning Marquis Zhang Heling, who sent so much money into the palace, how much was this guy greedy?
In addition, it's about the stove, and the stove was sold for more than 360,000 yuan in one winter, and it really made money from fucking luxury.
The positioning of the stove in Qiwei Zhai is not an ordinary iron stove, it is carefully designed by skilled craftsmen, coupled with perfect and intimate after-sales service, and even launched copper, followed by silver and gold small stoves and hand stoves, the price is naturally not said, now seeing the income, Zhu Houzhao does not know what it is like in his heart, and he still embarked on the road of just bad money.
"Mirrors make so much?" Another thing Zhu Houzhao can't believe is the mirror, does a mirror sell so much?
"That's the admission fee!" Liu Jin said with a smile: "After the mirror was launched on the side of Qiwei Zhai, businessmen flocked to it, and Qiwei Zhai launched a joint stock and access system, each place only cooperates with one businessman, others do not cooperate, and the cooperative person needs to pay an access fee, and then the cooperative businessman takes the land and stores in the local area to open a strange Zhai." ”
"The goods sold are provided by Qiwei Zhai, and Qiwei Zhai participates in the operation and management of the store, and the profits obtained are divided between the two parties."
Zhu Houzhao's eyes were beaten, he didn't know what to say, isn't this the routine of the 4S store in the future? If you don't authorize it, you are not allowed to sell, you want to get the right to collect, pay money, provide a venue, and build a store according to my requirements, which is even more excessive than the 4S store, and you have to participate in the management and share the profits, which is simple.
"What about the price of the goods?" Zhu Houzhao thought of this question for the first time and asked directly.
"Get the goods according to eighty percent of the selling price in the capital!" Liu Jin added on the side, cautiously, he didn't know what was wrong with His Royal Highness.
Zhu Houzhao didn't know what it was like in his heart, too, too, too dark, right? Zhu Houzhao, who had this money, felt that it was too dark in his heart. Glancing at Liu Jin, Zhu Houzhao immediately asked, "Those businessmen agreed?" ”
"Promised!" Liu Jin nodded as a matter of course: "Not only did I agree, but I also promised very happily, many people can't grab the relationship, and they dig up the relationship everywhere and go to the door, Shou Ninghou has pushed people over these days." ”
Zhu Houzhao understood that the money sent by Shou Ninghou was not only from Yanzheng's side, but also from Qiwei Zhai's side, this is really a layer of peeling!
