Looking at the puppets in the court, Chongzhen inexplicably remembered the ghost animal videos he had seen in later generations, and various spoof dubbed versions of "The Fuhrer's Fury".

Chongzhen felt like the head of state in the underground, a group of scum were preparing to trap him, and Jiannu was like a polar bear rushing in at any moment to kill himself.

Just when Chongzhen was thinking about whether to catch a few more people and kill them, Xu Xianchun, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, suddenly came out of the class and said: "Your Majesty, this commercial tax is not collected, where did the government get the money to train the army?" Where did the money come from?

As for the problem of corruption mentioned by Master Fang Caishi, the minister is ignorant, but he has a little opinion. ”

Chongzhen was interested in Xu Xianchun's words. You must know that Xu Xianchun, one of the "Five Biao", belongs to the martial arts, and it must be no problem for him to fight, kill, and kill, but it is really difficult for him to make suggestions.

In any case, the people below have positive ones, which is a good phenomenon and should be encouraged. Chongzhen immediately asked, "What is Xu Aiqing's opinion?" ”

Xu Xianchun said: "Your Majesty, what Lord Shi is worried about is nothing more than the corruption of the officials and officials below, and the fear that the people who supervise will collude with him.

However, what if the edict made by Emperor Taizu Hongwu was activated and the common people were allowed to supervise the officials?

Take a county as an example, it is the county order that is corrupt, can you buy one person, and can you also buy the people of the whole county? Coupled with the covert supervision of the factory guards, corruption can be stopped. ”

When the officials in the court heard this, they scolded in their hearts.

Xu Xianchun is worthy of being the fifth biao of the eunuch party, and his actions are really ruthless. This trick is tantamount to a direct draw from the bottom of the kettle - the people must not want the officials to be corrupt, but since Emperor Chengzu, this big edict has slowly become a nominal ornament, so which mud leg dares to take care of the affairs of the officials and masters?

Now that Xu Xianchun has re-sacrificed such a big killing weapon as Dahe, coupled with the brocade guards to support the mud legs, everyone in the court will know that even if they think about it, the people below will not dare to be corrupt easily.

So the question is, the people below dare not be corrupt, where do the bigwigs in the court go to receive "filial piety"? If there is no "filial piety" of the people below, do we want us, the cabinet ministers, and the secretaries of the ministries to go to the end to make money in person? Do you want the face of the imperial court?!

Chongzhen doesn't care what the ministers in the court think. In his opinion, as long as the unhealthy trend of corruption can be stopped, supplemented by commercial taxes, Daming will not die! I don't always have to worry about the courier brother who will force myself to hang the southeast branch one day.

Emperor Chongzhen, who was in the mood for a long face, decided to do just that, and he even wanted to learn from a certain bigwig: "Who is in favor?" Who is against?! ”

Chongzhen immediately ignored the ugly faces of the dead parents of the ministers below, and said to Wang Chengen: "Wang Chengen, the proposed purpose." ”

"The people of the Ming Dynasty must prepare a big edict at home. I will send the magistrate's office to each of your households. Whoever dares not to send it, I will send Jinyi Wei to deal with it.

If you have a big letter at home, you can take it to the county yamen to see if your county officials are greedy for money. If so, escort him to the capital division, and I will be rewarded.

If there are children in the family who go to school, they should also study the Great Edict well, and the content of the Great Edict will be added to the exam in the future, and those who are not familiar with it cannot become officials. ”

After speaking, Chongzhen said to Wang Chengen again: "Just draw up the edict according to what I just said, not many words and no fewer words." Make sure that the people understand. This edict is like never giving an edict, and it will be widely publicized to the world, so that the people will know about it. ”

Chongzhen thought for a while, and said to the ministers: "Since this regulatory problem has been solved, let's talk about it, how should this commercial tax be collected?" I first set a tone, farmers do not collect those who produce and use themselves, those who have less profits will receive less, and those with high profits will receive more. Others will be added. ”

Now that the business tax matter is a foregone conclusion, Chongzhen, who is holding a butcher's knife, has set the tone again, and the ministers have no choice but to fight for it again, hoping that they can get some benefits. Chongzhen saw that he couldn't discuss it for a while, so he simply talked about another thing.

"This time, I went to Xuanfu and ordered someone to confiscate the eight traitors who colluded with Jiannu, and I got a lot.

Now that I have money, I also want to mention this Ming Dynasty civil and military officials. After everyone Aiqing went back, they thought about it carefully, and turned around and handed the fold up. ”

"In addition, before I went out of Beijing to pursue Jiannu, I had already ordered the Ministry of Works to supervise the construction of the Martyrs' Shrine, what happened now?"

The Ministry of Works' Shangshu immediately went out to play and said: "Your Majesty, it's October now, and no matter how hard you rush to work, you can't finish it before the snow falls." When the snow blows and the wind blows, the quality will be difficult to guarantee. Please take the initiative to make your own decisions, and the craftsmen have been ordered to suspend the construction, and continue until the beginning of the next spring. The minister is guilty. ”

Chongzhen sighed and said, "I don't blame Aiqing for this. The timing of this slave knock is too coincidental, and it is not the fault of Qing. Since it's paused, let's pause it first. But let the craftsmen not disperse yet, and wait for my will.

Chongzhen remembered an awkward place. Glass, cement, gunpowder, this is crossing. It is necessary to be legal.

The gunpowder is already there, and I don't understand it. The glass itself only knows that it is made of sand, but how to burn it? Damn, I was just a programmer ape before I crossed over, not an engineering dog!

Cement? I don't know what's going on. It's a big deal to get a bunch of rocks, all sorts. Let's all come and burn it separately, and burn it to ashes, right? Then add a little water, which one solidifies and is particularly strong, that is. Cement, right?

The more he thought about cement, the more itchy Chongzhen simply said: "That's it, that's all for today."

After Zhongqing went back, he thought about these two things carefully. One is commercial tax, and the other is additional income.

The excerpt is appropriate in the vernacular, and the more simple and clear it is to explain what Aiqing has in mind, the better. It's all gone. ”

After retiring from the dynasty, Chongzhen, who returned to the harem, thought about it more and more he felt that his ideas were reliable. When he arrived at the place where the Emperor of the Apocalypse did carpentry before, Chongzhen suddenly remembered that the Apocalypse was a carpenter, and this land was only suitable for carpenter work, and if he wanted to study how to burn cement, he had to clean it up.

Fortunately, Chongzhen is the emperor, and with an order, the eunuchs and maids in the entire palace are busy. Moving things and sweeping the ground are cleaned up in a short time.

Wei Zhongxian, who was waiting when he heard the news, watched everything in front of him slowly be cleaned up, and thought of the Emperor of the Apocalypse in Daxing, his nose was sour, and his eyes were red.

Chongzhen saw it, and the memory of the genuine Chongzhen hidden in the depths of his mind was also hooked, but he shouted with a strong spirit: "What are you crying about!" The royal brother is great, and I am also sad. But I have to clean up the mess that the imperial brother left me.

Cheer up and send people to the Ministry of Works, such as some craftsmen who burn lime and bricks and tiles into the palace. I have something to command! ”
