Chapter 1126: Complicated State Affairs

After Zhang Yu came back, he rested for a long time, and the next morning, a cabinet meeting was held in the palace.

This time, there were only five people in the cabinet meeting, and Guo Jia and Xi Zhicai were not there.

Zhang Zhao, Gu Yong, Fu Zhu, Chen Gong and Tian Feng all held a thick stack of materials in their hands.

Nowadays, they have so much to report, to sort out.

Several cabinet members gave detailed reports on the situation on Zhangyu's territory.

This report is a few days, each person is responsible for a part, and the report is also a few days.

Zhang Yu paid more attention to financial issues, because of the repeated wars, it would not work if he didn't pay attention to it.

"My lord, now we have a large surplus of silver money in the treasury, mainly in this battle, and we have captured too much, not only did we not lose money, but we also made a lot of money."

"We immediately asked the Ministry of Transportation to start exploration and prepare to focus on building a few roads."

Zhang Zhao reported on the financial situation.

Zhang Yu did not answer, but calculated carefully.

This money will be spent when it is spent, this is nothing, Zhang Yu has to budget, how much income can he earn in a year now.

In the future, there will probably be a lot of fighting, and not every time it will be as smooth as this one.

"Gu Yong, you can report on our current financial income and see how much money we want to leave for backup."

Gu Yong began to report, and according to his calculations.

"My lord, overseas, in the past year, a total of more than 140 million silver coins have been shipped back, and it is still increasing, and Fusang still has a batch saved, but it has not had time to bring it back."

Zhang Yu nodded, and then said: "In the future, all the money shipped back from overseas will be left in thirty percent, which will be used exclusively for the development of the overseas part." ”

Zhang Yu can't just ask for it and not develop, it's not right.

Then Gu Yong reported on the tax situation in the territory.

Very optimistic, the places are settled, the population is large, and the tax revenue has skyrocketed.

Zhang Yu controlled more places, and collected very, very many taxes a year.

Moreover, Zhang Yu did not have to pay taxes for those who were famous like the Ming Dynasty, resulting in millions of taels of money in the treasury, which was not as much as the money of many corrupt officials.

It's very simple, this person has a meritorious reputation, he doesn't have to pay taxes, other people's fields are attached to him, and the court can't collect a few dollars a year.

Moreover, during the Ming Dynasty, merchants did not have to pay taxes.

Zhang Yu calculated that the annual tax revenue was enough for him to support the war, and if he needed a big war, he would reduce other expenditures at that time.

"Okay, road construction is a big deal, except for extending the north-south road to Guangdong, the others will go west first." The future war may be in the west, and the east side can still be transported by water.

Several cabinets continued to report on things.

The whole empire is very big, and naturally there are a lot of things.

There are also a large number of overseas territories.

The meeting lasted for a few days, and Zhang Yu said after learning more about it: "Now three new departments have been established, the Ministry of Public Security, which is responsible for the arrest of thieves, and all county towns must be established immediately, and the tasks of arresting thieves, public security, and rescue are all for them to do, and priority is given to selecting from retired soldiers." ”

In the past, although there were also these things that were responsible for catching thieves, but they were not very professional, Zhang Yu wanted to establish a professional team, and as long as there was no need to dispatch the army, they would also do it in ordinary disaster relief.

Then, Zhang Yu said: "The establishment of the Ministry of Justice and the transfer of duties to deal with legal judgments must be done by professionals, not by local governors, not only are it easy to be unjust, false and wrongly decided, but the local administrators do not have so much time, and they are not professional." ”

Then Zhang Yu said: "Establish the Overseas Affairs Department, temporarily manage overseas affairs, organize the study of more advanced ships, and draw maps in a unified manner. ”

Zhang Yu set up three new departments, which the Ministry of Public Security already had before, but the organization was different, and the local governor was largely in charge before.

Now, Zhang Yu controls such a huge group, and a unified public security system must be established.

Zhang Yu arranged the tasks in detail, and several cabinets recorded them in detail, and then held an enlarged meeting to call the heads of various departments.

Zhang Yu said again: "I want Xun Yu to enter the cabinet and let Xu Shu go to Changsha. ”

Both of them are in Jizhou, and now Jizhou is completely controlled, but Changsha is new, and now it is mainly Xi Zhicai who is dealing with it.

After a while, Xi Zhicai will definitely come back, he is a cabinet member, and it is definitely a good thing to go to the local area for a period of time, but he can't be away for a long time.

This Xun Yu's talent is no worse than a few cabinet members, so it is naturally no problem for Xun Yu to also enter the cabinet.

However, things can't be done overnight, Zhang Yu transferred Xun Yu back first, and Xu Shu is still in Jizhou, and he will be adjusting after a while.

The cabinet meeting lasted more than ten days before Zhang Yu understood all aspects of the entire empire clearly.

"It's not easy, it's like a battle."

In the past few days, Zhang Yu has a meeting during the day, and naturally has to take good care of a few wives at night.

Just play like that.

After more than ten days, all the work was arranged, and Zhang Yu was able to relax a lot.

In this way, Zhang Yu re-projected his gaze to the extraterritorial.

Maten still hooked up with the empire to the west, and the trade between the two sides surged.

Zhang Yu didn't interfere, this is a Silk Road, this road must be made prosperous, and people in the west must know that there is such a mysterious place.

Although the other party's motives are not pure, if you want to conquer the East, the entire Western empire does not have this ability.

It may bring a great disaster, but Zhang Yu can't cut off contacts with foreign countries.

When this road prospers, Zhang Yu will naturally look for an opportunity to take it back.

Zhang Yu did not interfere with Ma Teng, but he had already blocked Ma Teng.

Today's Ma Teng, it is not so easy to develop.

Although a large number of various commodities poured in, these were all organized by Zhang Yu and them themselves.

Ordinary merchants were not allowed to deliver goods to Ma Teng, and at the same time, Zhang Yu did not allow the people outside to enter Ma Teng's territory, but secretly absorbed the displaced people on Ma Teng's side.

Although the population has been growing, some of them have been attracted by Zhang Yu.

As long as Ma Teng does not have enough population, they will not have enough strength at that time.

Ma Teng knew Zhang Yu's movements, but he had no choice.

If he turned his face with Zhang Yu, then Zhang Yu directly blocked all the goods, and Ma Teng would be even more uncomfortable at that time.

Zhang Yu paid attention to overseas again.

Fuso is now the place that offers the most wealth, who told them to have a silver mine that can be mined for hundreds of years.

In the southeast region, after Zhang Yu was not short of money, let their money continue to develop.

The trade with Tianzhu has been growing rapidly, which makes the entire Guangzhou port very prosperous and drives the development of the whole Guangdong.

Everywhere, Zhang Yu left them enough money to open up the wasteland and recruit the people.
