Chapter 357 The Huns have not been destroyed, why should they be at home
Indeed, at this time, Da Ming was already rotten.
This defeat happened when it shouldn't have happened, and to put it bluntly, these generals in the Liaodong battlefield began to raise their own respect.
It's not a battlefield there.
There are ATMs up and down.
The imperial court threw six million into Liaodong every year, and through the efforts of the entire military and political system, it was finally distributed to the pockets of civil and military officials, and they really would not let Liaodong erode, but the wild boar skin would no longer be involved in Liaodong, because then this ATM would not be able to sustain it.
If the wild boar skin no longer touches Liaodong, then what do you want these 200,000 troops to do?
Six million a year.
The normal tax revenue of the imperial court to relieve Beijing is not so much for a year, in recent years, it was initially Liaoyu to make up for the gap, and then at Yang Xin's insistence, Liaoyu was exempted, and then it became a raid, bail, new customs duty stamp duty, etc., why did Yang Xin do so many of those officials who shouted against it, but in the end there were few practical actions? It's because they know that the money that Yang Xin made still has to fall into their pockets after all, this is to make money for them, so why should they stop it?
It was the gentry who suffered, but it was the officials who benefited.
This process of transferring Yang Xin's money to the pockets of officials depends on the battlefield in Liaodong, so of course they must take care of this ATM, or take care of the wild boar skin, the wild boar skin must be beaten, and only the wild boar skin can ensure that the imperial court's military spending on Liaodong will not be reduced. Even if he fights a little harder, the atmosphere is more tense, and more military spending can be invested, so that everyone can make more money, as for the dead and wounded soldiers and civilians in Liaodong, this is not in the scope of consideration of the princes of Gongon at all.
There is no shortage of people in Daming.
Zu Dashou eats empty salaries and makes hundreds of thousands of dollars a year?
Zu Dashou falsely reported thousands of deaths to get more pensions?
Just turn a blind eye to this.
Anyway, their share is indispensable, Zu Dashou made 300,000 yuan, I'm afraid that 200,000 yuan will have to be sent to a group of large and small moths up and down the palace and outside the palace.
Fight?
That's a business.
But what about Yang Xin?
"Your Majesty, the minister is willing to lead the army to smash the nest of Jiannu!"
Yang Xin, who returned to the capital, said.
"This is not in a hurry, the left and right are just careless, fortunately, the loss is not big, but it is less than 20,000 soldiers and horses, and the two states of Haigai have finally been recaptured."
Nine thousand years old said with a smile.
Then it was recaptured, and the wild boar skins of the people carried more than 20,000 captives, with hundreds of thousands of stone grain, countless livestock, gold, silver, cloth, and so on. If it weren't for Shen Yourong's cleverness, taking away the people in the south and burning the tens of thousands of stone grain in Xiongyue City, and the mountain fire he lit also made the withdrawal of the wild boar skin quite embarrassed, so that many captured people took the opportunity to escape, the wild boar skin gained more this time, and even then made Jiannu return to blood all of a sudden.
"Zhongxian is right, my brother doesn't have to worry about these small things, but my brother's own marriage needs to be resolved, the imperial concubine has already personally acted as a matchmaker for my brother, and your marriage with Miss Fang should be completed."
Apocalypse said with a smile.
At this time, the customs matter can be regarded as a complete solution.
The gentry in Guangzhou, Zhangquan, Fuzhou, Ningbo, Songjiang and other places have quickly set up their own businesses and took the initiative to ask for the contracted customs, and the tax price of Guangzhou Customs has been raised to 500,000 yuan, after all, Yang Xin is using 400,000 bags, and if he wants to grab it, he must be higher than him. The Guangzhou gentry, headed by Liang, Huang and other families, jointly funded the establishment of a firm, with an annual contract of 500,000 taels of Guangdong Customs for three years, three years later another bid, but basically there will be no one else, it is estimated that Yang Dudu will bid.
It depends on how much you can collect each year.
The tax rate set by Yang Xin was overturned, but with a mandatory reservation.
It is to reduce or exempt the tax on the amount of rice carried, which is mandatory, and all customs are the same, otherwise Yang Dudu will go to the tax one by one.
And other customs are the original price.
In this way, the customs tax of 9,000 years old has increased by 500,000 at once, plus the 400,000 yuan of Yang Xinbao's tax this year and the 50,000 yuan of the two northern customs, and the customs revenue of Daming this year is 950,000.
Compared with the past, it has skyrocketed nearly tenfold.
And Yang Xin also brought back two million, in addition, Jinyiwei also received a lot of bail, and most of the tax supervisors who went out were completed according to the amount of the task, although it made the local officials unhappy, and it is said that there was a county magistrate who was forced to die, but the silver was really recovered. Coupled with the newly increased stamp duty, this thing has collected 300,000 yuan in the first year so far, which is still a large part of the place has not started, the prosperity of Daming commerce can be seen, in short, together with the household received by the Jiejing tax plus these messes, Daming Taicang, Inner Treasury, plus the emperor's small treasury, the final income of this year is likely to reach 12 million.
It's a miracle!
Counting the retained in various places, the total income is expected to exceed 25 million.
Before Yang Xin, the hungry wolf, appeared, all the whole year of Wanli forty-eight years had only collected a total of 20 million stone rice and 4 million stone wheat, plus some cloth.
Of course, some of them are actually converted into silver, but the price of silver is different according to the situation in various places, most of the people in Nanzhili are only two dollars and one stone, even if the expensive Shanxi is only six dollars, in short, this part of the silver law is very messy, roughly these two million stones and hundreds of thousands of pieces of cloth, after the silver is counted as twelve million. This part is the core of the Ming Dynasty's income, but some places retain part of the liberation of Beijing, and the proportion is not the same in various places, roughly one and a half, but the liberation of Beijing does not mean that it is sent to the capital.
Xie Jing means to be under the control of the Ministry of Households.
Therefore, for the clan and the local garrison, these messy expenses that need to be borne by the household department are usually paid on the spot.
The former is a very large piece, and the king of Jingjiang went to Guangzhou to ask for silver, because the tax from Guangxi Jiejing is simply not enough to feed his family's thousands of pigs, except that Guangdong needs to allocate a part of the tax and silver from Jiejing, Huguang also has to give him some every year, and these clans consume too much.
What really gives the capital is actually the royal family's expenditure of gold and silver, fixed one million, Cao Yun rice, how much a year depends on the capacity, the normal year is four million stones.
The rest is business taxes and the like.
The core of this part is the salt tax, 1.4 million, and the other messy commercial taxes plus Liaoyu, a total of 5.8 million was collected in the 48th year of Wanli, of which the main one is Liaoyu.
And the payment of military expenses in Liaodong is from here.
More than six million a year, if it is not enough, find another way.
For example, the addition of Liaoyu.
After all, Caoyun is for the capital, and there are still a bunch of princes and ministers waiting for their salaries, and the salaries of the officials in the capital are spent from this part of the income.
The emperor's gold and silver are raised by the inner court, and Yang Xin's salaries as generals in Beijing are actually taken from the gold and silver.
This part is not the turn of military spending.
But whether it is the physical money or the direct receipt of silver, the total is added up, the forty-eighth year of Wanli is 20 million, although it is impossible to reach five coins in various places, the vast majority of them are actually less than four coins, but there are other messes in the imperial court income. At present, the tax is in kind and silver, so many strange taxes collected in the past are there, such as hundreds of thousands of catties of cotton or something, but these can't be converted into a few silvers at all, and the forage for feeding the horses is still 20 million bunches, how many can there be in silver?
After Yang Xin abolished Liaoyu, the largest miscellaneous tax, he still increased the annual income of the imperial court by five million taels.
It's a miracle.
Although the two million he brought was a windfall, it was also within the tax system, and the imperial court's annual income included confiscated silver, which obviously belonged to confiscated silver.
The important thing is that he has been able to confiscate these every year for the past two years.
Since the succession of the Apocalypse, Yang Dudu has not been fined less than three million every year.
It can be called the king of confiscation.
"The Huns have not been destroyed, why should they be at home!"
The King of Forfeiture said with great righteousness.
"Even if my brother wants to go straight to the nest of Jiannu, he is not in a hurry, this looks like it is winter, and my brother also said that it is not suitable to use troops in Liaodong in winter, and I will talk about it in the spring of next year, and the brother will send my brother to the expedition in the spring of next year, and now the brother will get married first."
Apocalypse said.
In this case, it is not easy for Yang Dudu to say anything.
Although he is not in a hurry to get married or anything......
He had been rolling in bed for so long, he really had nothing to worry about, if it weren't for his knowledge, he would have been able to see the child at this time, but this is indeed a big deal.
"There is one more thing, this Gao Di still can't stay in Liaodong, at present, the Liaodong armies not only do not grow, but regress than Xiong Tingbi, that is to say, Gao Di, the Liaodong Economic Strategy, is not competent."
Yang Xin said.
"He's also careless."
Nine thousand years old said with a smile.
"Since my brother said that he would change it, Xiong Tingbi didn't have anything to do here, and he really should change it if he made such a defeat within a year of taking over, but who does my brother mean to change?"
Apocalypse said.
Nine thousand years old smiled a little embarrassed.
"How is Sun Chuanting? He is already in the middle of the military department, and the next step is the right waiter, just with the right waiter passing through Liaodong, and then adding him to the imperial history of the capital, this is enough. ”
Yang Xin said.
"Yes, my brother also thinks that this person has some ability."
Apocalypse said.
In this way, Yang Xin's long-cherished wish was finally fulfilled and Sun Chuanting was stuffed into the position of Liaodong Economic Strategy.
Although Sun Chuanting originally had no record against Jiannu in history, in fact, he mainly dealt with those rebels in the pass, but his cunning and decisive character was still very appreciated by Yang Dudu, and now Liaodong has nothing to do, what is needed is a dare to kill, first sweep away the poison of Gaodi's indulgence, and then Yang Dudu will go directly to Hetuala in the spring of next year.
Since these bastards are self-respecting, then they can't continue to raise them, and then this catastrophe is coming, and they can't keep filling the bottomless pit of Liaodong like this, and they must reduce the annual military expenditure of six million.
In the final analysis, it is not enough to open source, but also to throttle.
