After inspecting the Armament Division, Zhu Yijun left the Armament Division with satisfaction, except for one thing that made Zhu Yijun unhappy, that is, burning money, everything else was very satisfied, and burning money was something that could not be avoided.

Back in the palace, Zhu Yijun glanced at Zhang Whale, and then said, "Go to Kunning Palace." ”

During this time, Zhu Yijun spent more time going to several concubines, most of them to see the children, but he stayed at Queen Wang's place more, in order not to let Queen Wang be disappointed.

Zhu Yijun is very satisfied with the situation in his harem, so he wants to maintain this harmony.

Nanking.

Since ancient times, Jinling is a good place, after the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, Nanjing also did the national capital, although later moved the capital to Beijing, but still has a very important position here. Because it does not have the heaviness of the national capital, it is more relaxed and prosperous.

Wang Yongji is also an official in Nanjing, so he is naturally no stranger to this place.

At that time, Wang Yongji was just a foreigner, and when he went to Nanjing, he gave birth to Langzhong, and later he was promoted to a waiter, and then transferred to the tax department as a waiter, and every scene was like yesterday. Later, Wang Yongji also knew that he rose fast because of the emperor's weight.

Since he arrived at the Tax Department, Wang Yongji has been conscientious and conscientious, and he did not dare to make a slight mistake, also in order to repay the emperor's kindness.

"Lord Wang, what do you remember?" Xu De came behind Wang Yongji with a smile and said, "In Nanjing City, Lord Wang is also half a landlord, why don't you take our family around for a walk?" ”

Wang Yongji glanced back at Xu De, and said expressionlessly: "The official is unwell, and Father-in-law Xu wants to go and please take care of himself." ”

Xu De didn't care about Wang Yongji's attitude, this was not the first time along the way. In fact, only after getting along with people can they know whether they are compatible or not, which is the case with Xu De and Wang Yongji.

Although when he was in Shandong, Wang Yongjijue's Xu De was resolute and capable, but when he really got along, Wang Yongji found that he and this Xu Gonggong really didn't get along. For example, he didn't understand that a eunuch wanted to go to the Qinhuai River to enjoy the wind and moon all day long, and he didn't know what he thought.

"Lord Wang, you're so nervous!" Xu De said with a smile: "It's not that there is nothing wrong with this Jiangnan. ”

In fact, after the two of them arrived in Nanjing, they found that the gentry here were paying grain very smoothly, and all the fields in the fish scale book could be harvested, and there was no place where the gentry did not pay taxes.

Even some of the officials who paid the priest did not make trouble, and all of them obediently handed over the silver.

The tax payment side is also going well, everyone is running to pay the tax, and even if someone hides the land, there is not much, and the local tax department will be able to deal with it very quickly. Xu De and Wang Yongji don't need it at all, Jiangsu and Zhejiang have already made people report, and the official gentry has completed the payment of grain, and the local Yangshi silver is being verified.

Seeing Wang Yongji frowning and looking worried, Xu De said with a smile: "Lord Wang thinks there is a conspiracy here?" ”

"What is Grandpa Xu's opinion?" Wang Yongji turned his head to look at Xu De and asked.

"I can't talk about it, but I know something!" Xu De made a gesture of invitation to Wang Yongji, and then sat down: "Actually, there are several reasons for the matter. ”

"The first reason is that Yangzhou's blood hasn't dried up yet!" Speaking of this, Xu Dexian smiled: "This is thanks to our father-in-law Zhang." ”

Of course, Wang Yongji knew the meaning of this, and he also knew that what Xu De said about Zhang Gonggong was Zhang Whale, and after arriving in Nanjing, Wang Yongji also felt the power of this Zhang Gonggong. It's not much worse to stop children crying at night, although the reputation is not good, but the shock is real.

"The second is that the people in Jiangnan are busy with another thing, that is, the Northwest Trade Road."

"Now that there are rumors that the Silk Road is going to be restored, does Lord Wang know how much silver it is? A few days ago, the Ministry of Internal Affairs purchased a million taels of goods here, and now the fleet is back. ”

"One million taels, how long has it been!" Xu De said with some sighs: "I heard that a large number of craftsmen will be recruited this time. ”

"I heard from our family that the carpenters in Nanjing City have good craftsmanship, and the price has been opened to two hundred and twenty a year, Lord Wang, how much do you earn a year?"

Wang Yongji is now a squire, with three grades and 35 stones, and then it is gone. Plus some other income, if you don't embezzle, one hundred taels a year is a big mark, two hundred taels, for a carpenter, it is definitely a lot of money.

"That's too high, isn't it?" Wang Yongji said with some dumbfoundedness.

"That's not that high!" Xu De said with a smile: "If you want to see a textile factory in the northwest, you need a lot of looms, and you need a lot of carpenters. ”

The king used Ji to be silent.

"For the gentry in Jiangnan, these are nothing at all, how much tax can the land have."

"Of course, there is one more thing, that is, the ministers of the court have all written letters, Lord Guangwang of the Kingdom of the Ministry of Officials, Lord Zhang Xueyan of the Ministry of Households, several scholars of the cabinet, and even the first assistant of the cabinet, Shen Ge, all of whom have written letters."

"It is strictly required that the family should pay for food, and they must take the lead in paying for food."

Wang Yongji Moran, this is going to die, most of these people are from Jiangnan, they wrote back, one is to show their attitude, ask their families, and why not ask the magistrate.

The Ministry of Officials is still the kingdom of light, and the officials of the Ministry of Books for more than ten years, and the protégés are all over the world.

His words are definitely more effective than tossing for a month.

"In addition to Lord Wang's great power in Shandong, it is normal that no one in Jiangnan dares to make a mistake!" Xu De said with a smile: "So Lord Wang, put your heart in your stomach and accompany our family to Qinhuai River for a walk, our family has been yearning for Qinhuai Fengyue for a long time." ”

Wang Yongji glanced at Xu De, and then said, "Gonggong Xu already knows this?" ”

Looking at Wang Yongji's expression, Xu De was a little embarrassed, and he was a little carried away when he patronized Wang Yongji's jokes. Of course, this kind of thing can't be admitted, Xu De shook his head directly and said: "Of course not, how can it be, our family has just gotten the news." ”

Wang Yongji was not stupid, of course he wouldn't believe Xu De's words, nodded, and then calmly turned around and left: "Father-in-law Xu should go by himself!" The semi-official family has a bad wife, and it is not suitable to go to Fengyue Field, besides, the court officials are strictly forbidden to visit the Qinglou. ”

Looking at Wang Yongji's back, Xu De could only smile bitterly, these civil officials are really swearing without dirty words.

There is a bad wife in the family, and it is clear that he is saying that he is a eunuch, and his wife in front of the eunuch is simply vicious, and by the way, he also mocked a wave of eunuchs to go to the Qinglou, and later said that he went to the Qinhuai River when he was on an errand, and he was aggrieved by a set of combination punches.

If you want to refute it, people are talking about yourself, and you can only admit it.

However, thinking of Wang Yongji's appearance a few days ago, Xu De showed a smile on his face again, this wave is not a loss. Thinking of Wang Yongji's appearance along the way, Xu De smiled even happier, all of them were the pleasure of revenge, in order to celebrate this grand event, Qin Huaihe walked!

Forbidden City, Wenhua Palace.

Zhu Yijun then put aside a piece of the fold, the wind direction of the twist and turn is a little wrong recently, and many people began to play the fold to tout what prosperity is coming, what is the lord of Zhongxing, which makes Zhu Yijun a lot more vigilant.

This kind of thing can't be said yet, people are playing and slapping you on the back, you can't give an order to reprimand!

Glancing at Zhang Whale, Zhu Yijun put down the fold in his hand, and then said: "In the future, this kind of fold will not need to be sent, it is enough to listen to your old thing's ass every day." ”

Zhang Jing hurriedly smiled and said: "Your Majesty's wisdom is recognized by the government and the opposition, but it is not the old slave alone. ”

After scolding with a smile, Zhu Yijun once again reached out and picked up a notebook, and after glancing at it, Zhu Yijun's face became serious. This recital was from the inner factory, and it was handed over by Xu De from Nanjing.

The content of the twist and turn is similar to what Xu De said to Wang Yongji, describing the situation in Jiangnan in detail.

Zhu Yijun didn't expect that the gentry could find a breakthrough from here, and those gentry who did business began to run into business, and no one wanted to make trouble paying taxes at this time, after all, everyone now relies on the Internal Affairs Office.

What kind of yamen is the Ministry of Internal Affairs, no one knows that it is unwise to anger the emperor at this time.

Zhu Yijun also saw another point, that is, the deterrent power of these ministers in the court, these people write a letter to the place, even better than their own holy decree, it is still not enough prestige!

But this is not something that happens overnight, and prestige is not built in a day.

If you want to reach the point of saying what you say, it will take a long time, maybe it will be possible to sweep Mobei by yourself.

Maybe the north does not have many interests, and it is far better to put his energy on the south and the sea, but his political significance is different. The reason why the Han and Tang dynasties were considered strong was because they swept away the grasslands and established their position as overlords.

A large part of the reason why the Great Song Dynasty was considered weak was that they lost the supremacy of the Han Chinese.

Only by sweeping Mobei can his prestige reach an unprecedented level, far surpassing Emperor Chengzu and Emperor Taizu, and at that time, his holy decree will be a veritable holy decree.

As for attacking southward, I am afraid that it is to knock down India's and expand its territory, and the significance is not as great as sweeping the steppe.

In fact, after destroying Wara, Zhu Yijun already had this feeling, standing in the court, the attitude of the ministers towards him could be seen, they were more in awe, more respectful, this is the might.

You don't have to go to court with a sword, as long as you sit there, that kind of power will come out, in the words of later generations, you now have your own BUFF, shock aura, and the words you say will make people listen involuntarily, and standing there will make people involuntarily afraid, and the attack power of facing yourself will be halved.
