According to Shen Xingcha's historical records, the Jin Dynasty in Shanxi Province only needed 10,000 stone per year in the early Ming Dynasty, and in the Jiajing period, it increased to 870,000 stones. Henan Zhou Wangfu, from 10,000 stone to 690,000 stone. Huguang Chu Wangfu increased from 10,000 stone to 250,000 stone...... In the distribution of national wealth, the proportion of the powerful has expanded rapidly, while the living space of the people at the bottom has been continuously compressed.

The true meaning of the survival of hundreds of millions of people in this country has always been to provide anointing blood for a family and a surname. This is the proper meaning of Chinese politics, and the subjects of the Ming Dynasty fully understand it.

However, the Zhu family's outrageous fertility rate created a situation unprecedented in Chinese history: from the middle of the Ming Dynasty onwards, local governors were alarmed to find that their local revenues were no longer enough to support the local royal family.

For example, Shanxi's local fiscal revenue is 1.52 million stones, while the annual consumption of Shanxi princes is 3.12 million stones. Henan's annual fiscal revenue is 840,000 stones, and the one that needs to be supplied to the prince is 1.92 million stones.

The ministers of the Jiajing period anxiously pointed out that not long after, with the vast land and resources of China, it was possible to raise the strength of the whole country, but it was impossible to support this absurd scene of one family name: "The generals and lieutenants of the royal palace have mobilized tens of thousands, and if the orders are repeated for decades, although the reserves of the inner government will be damaged, and all taxes in the world will be exhausted, and Xi is enough to support it?" "In the future, the Sons and Sons of God and Grandchildren will be passed down from generation to generation, and with the limited land, the incalculable grain will be increased, and what will be done to improve the future?"

Chongzhen, Chongzhen, kindness to the family, but have you ever thought that it is cruelty to the people, saying that you are incompetent and faint, it is really not wronged at all. Today, Lao Tzu exempted Shanxi from financial expenditures, and the Shen family's shop paid wages to support your seven aunts and eight aunts. Don't be ungrateful.

"Young master, it's calculated, the eight Jin merchants are not a fixed industry, and the money confiscated is 870,000 taels of silver, and the officials and generals are greedy for a total of 2.4 million taels of silver. The illegal gains of the princes were 9.3 million taels of silver, a total of 20.4 million taels. ”

Cao Huachun's factory guards lurking spies all over the country of course have a careful investigation of this Shanxi, he already knew a rough idea in his heart, but when he heard the accurate accounting figures, he was greatly surprised, and now this Shanxi can still be well returned to the territory of the Ming Dynasty It is really a blessing in misfortune.

"Young master, after deducting the more than 10 million taels needed to settle the people and garrison troops in Shanxi, and restore the agricultural business, there are 7.5 million left." Shen Xing let out a long sigh after hearing this.

"Cao Dada, let's do it, I don't want any of the rest, you are tired and bring it to the teacher, he has a lot of money in hand, every time I think of the teacher's work for the country, the students have trouble sleeping and eating."

Cao Huachun looked at the boss with Shen Xing's mouth open, and just wanted to speak, Shen Xing gritted his teeth and interrupted him again as if he had made a difficult decision, "In this way, take out one million taels from Shanxi's finances and give it to the teacher, as for what is lacking here, the Shen family will pay to make up for it, and you can bring this letter to the teacher again, so that he doesn't have to worry too much about the situation in Shanxi, no matter how difficult it is, I will settle the people of Shanxi." ”

The hatred in Cao Huachun's heart, if it weren't for Chongzhen's sake, he really wanted to strangle Shen Xing alive with his hands, and he didn't take a penny, and the Shen family poured out a million taels, how beautiful this is, people who don't know, still think that you Shen Xing has been wronged and has become a wronged person who milks milk and doesn't eat grass, right, do you think everyone in the world is stupid?

So much land, so many industries, and this mine, this building...... You Shen Xing's upper lips and lower lips are all redeemed as soon as they touch, this food is too ugly, even the fiefdom of the old Zhu family can be eaten, you are not afraid of choking to death.

But Cao Huachun wanted to think about it, he really wanted to ask blatantly, he didn't dare, even Chongzhen didn't dare, in case Shen Xing played sideways and didn't do it, then the matter would be too big, how could he dare to do this porcelain work without diamond diamonds, the whole Shanxi was in danger, it was about to erupt, the people's livelihood withered, and all industries were waiting to be prospered.

If there is no logistical support of the Shen family's huge caravan, and the shrewd and capable stewards take care of the aftermath, they will rely on those subordinate officials in the imperial court who eat people and do not spit out bones to take over.

There is a specialization in the art industry, Shen Xing knows that he is playing Yangmou, everyone is a smart person, you Chongzhen Lao'er has the ability and strength to deal with things in Shanxi, but the only thing missing is time, wait for your cabinet meetings to come down one by one, and then mobilize manpower and material resources to guide the government and county, not to mention whether these laymen can do a good job in the economy.

It's just this year and a half, can the people who are waiting to be fed wait? In addition, Shanxi is a trilateral military powerhouse, if you blow up the pot first, then the Manchu Emperor Taiji will not be happy to bloom, why did Li Zicheng later beat half of China to pieces, Shanxi's army is still there, isn't it just to defend the north.

can be prevented from coming and going, and in the end, the soldiers surrounded the Beijing Division, but it still didn't help, Chongzhen, Chongzhen, I Shen Xing really don't know what to take to love you, the poor emperor who has fallen into blood mold, but helping you now is helping yourself, at least for now, you can still do a lot of things with your tiger skin banner.

In this Ming Dynasty, the people are suffering, and the dead people are even more suffering, do what you can, anyway, if you have money to make, you can spend all day and wine.

Cao Huachun finally left under the escort of Ren Tian and the Shenji Battalion, such a big spy, a big power supervisor, dangling in front of him all day long, to be honest, Shen Xing is not only worried, but he doesn't eat well or sleep well, and he doesn't know if it's a psychological effect, anyway, everything will be comfortable as soon as he leaves.

The notice posted out of the people is also very popular with the people, nothing else, that is, rich and capricious, the content is simple and clear, as long as the people of the Ming Dynasty in Shanxi Province send out a laborer to join the army or enter the workshop, the shop can get two acres of land for nothing, and the tax is exempted for one year, and the military salary and monthly silver can be advanced in advance.

After obtaining a large number of coal mines and iron mines and hundreds of thousands of cheap labor, the Shen family's commercial machine was once again at full power, and there was a steady stream of steel and cement output in just two months, and Taiyuan became the most prosperous commercial secondary school station in Daming for a while.

Because after the cement was widely promoted, the sensation caused by it completely greeted anyone's expectations, especially in the hot pot city of the Shen family in several cities in the south of the Yangtze River, after the grand theater rose from the ground, any voice questioning the quality of the cement was drowned out in praise.

Outside Taiyuan City, Shen held Agqi's hand and congratulated him very warmly. "Lord, congratulations, congratulations, you can finally go back, your emperor brother is really interesting, there are a lot of things, don't keep putting on a face and be happy, the previous things were forced by the situation to last resort......"

A few hundred meters away, more than 1,000 Manchu iron horsemen lined up neatly, bows and crossbows were wound, and a self-proclaimed tiger commander of Ao Bai made people really frightened. "Woo that, the thief of the Shen family, Ao Bai is here, and he still doesn't let my princess come over, do you want to play villain tricks again!" Rough shouts, wave after wave,

Of course, the formation on Shen Xing's side is not weak at all, with 50,000 new troops lined up, military flags flashing, artillery fire, and ready to go. "Princess Kikier, acquaintance is fate, I have been offended a lot before, I hope you don't remember the villain!" Shen Xing said as he took out a delicate panda doll from behind him and handed it over. Seeing that Qiqi'er looked at Agqi hesitantly, he didn't reach out for a long time.

"It's made of big flowers and small flowers, you guys have the best fun, they want to give you a gift as a souvenir, and they may not be able to see each other again in the future." After hearing this, Qiqier smiled and hugged it in her arms.

"Shen thief, this humiliation is unforgettable for the rest of my life, don't fall into the hands of this king in the end!" As soon as Agqi finished speaking, he pulled Kikier and galloped away.

"Virtuous nephew, why don't you take this opportunity to train the new army and eat these thousand people! The soldiers are treacherous, and what faith and righteousness do they have to talk about with the Tartars. Lu Xiangsheng looked at Agqi who was far away and said indignantly. Shen Xing turned to look at the rejuvenated army and shook his head helplessly.

"Uncle Lu, why don't I want to, but in this way, Huang Taiji will inevitably be furious, in order to appease the mood in the Manchu Qing Dynasty, he will definitely raise the whole country's troops to come at any cost, the whole Shanxi has just recovered a little vitality, it really can't withstand the war, and the people also need time to recuperate, maybe a year, or less, Huang Taiji will come again, but even a few months is good for us."

"Virtuous nephew, what you said is not unreasonable, Bendu has also arranged for manpower to build the bunker fortress you said in various fortresses, according to the victory experience of Zhulu County, artillery and hand ammunition, is also stepping up the system, and then with the strong support of the virtuous nephew logistics, Bendu is confident that Shanxi will become impregnable, but above this court, I am afraid I will not let me wait to defend it......"
