The great gift that Emperor Chongzhen refers to is actually a salary increase for Ming officials. Let all officials in the world know that if the treasury revenue increases, everyone can benefit. This kind of benefit, but a serious salary, not a gray income, do not have to worry about the factory guard suddenly coming to the door.

Compared with the past, today's salaries are no longer in kind, and they are no longer folded, and all of them are issued with Daming banknotes. It's convenient, affordable, and it's good to use.

Speaking of which, it is also a loss that the Ming currency is basically based on paper money. Otherwise, if there is still only silver as currency, the economy of the Ming Dynasty has been booming in recent years, and silver will not be enough at all, which will lead to the cheapness of silver, affect the enthusiasm of the people of the Ming Dynasty for labor creation, and fail to reflect the value of labor.

Of course, Daming banknotes are no longer a one-to-one issuance relationship with silver, but based on the annual treasury revenue estimate as the premise of issuance, this model, so that the people of Daming, and even Ming officials will not panic because of the previous Daming treasure precedent.

Emperor Chongzhen announced the intention of raising salaries, and everyone was naturally happy. This year's New Year's Festival, no matter who it is, as long as it is the people in the Ming Dynasty, including the ordinary people, officials, and relatives of the emperor, they are all happily preparing for the New Year. There is no other reason, it is because it is getting better and better every year.

Just when the Chinese New Year was about to begin, Emperor Chongzhen also received a big gift, that is, the Jinyi Guard sent to the Lion Country and Goa two months ago, and the news came back through the chat group.

The Lion Kingdom and Goa were indeed colonized by the Portuguese, and unlike the original history, the current Governor of Colombo of the Lion Kingdom is still an "old friend" of the Ming Dynasty, which is the original Governor of Haojing Australia, Shi Villa. After this guy escaped from Daming's side, he stopped at Annan and went to Temasek, but soon came to the Lion Nation side.

Based on the stalemate between the Portuguese and the natives on the Lion Nation's side, Svera promised to exterminate the natives and was offered the post of Governor of Colombo.

Speaking of which, this Schvera is really a bit capable, as soon as he changed the stupid approach of his predecessor, he immediately gave in to the natives, and then began to divide and co-opt, and finally naturally tried to see the poor dagger, but through this practice of pulling one faction to fight another, the natives of the lion country have no power to fight back.

On the Goa side, seeing that the situation here in the Lion Country is very good, he also began to vigorously support Svera's side. An army of Portuguese, as well as more servants, was sent to land in the Lion Nation to fight.

According to the news from Jinyiwei, the natives on the Lion Country side are likely to hold out until the end of next year.

After Emperor Chongzhen heard the news, he couldn't help but smile a little more. On the Lion Country, I am going to make a decision, and I am worried about finding some reason to turn it into the "Hawaii" of the Ming Dynasty.

Fortunately, Shi Vera, one of the most wanted criminals in the Ming Dynasty, actually claimed to be the king and hegemon in the Lion Country, and no matter what, he had to send troops to arrest him. And the Portuguese instigated Annam to rebel, the same crime is unforgivable, not to mention that the Lion Country and Goa are Portuguese colonies, and the Ming Dynasty wants to send troops to attack, that is, to attack Portugal itself far away in Europe, which is also famous.

In this case, after the New Year, we can plan to send troops to conquer Goa and the Lion Kingdom. As for Europe, at present, Portugal, the Netherlands, Britain, Spain, and Tsarist Russia are all hostile to the Ming Dynasty, and they all have reasons to send troops to attack these countries in the future. But at the moment, there is no talk of sending troops to Europe, it is too far away, the whip is beyond reach, let's take it step by step, sooner or later the whole earth will be Ming!

When Emperor Chongzhen thought of this, he couldn't help but feel a little relieved in his heart, when the whole earth is Ming, then it is worthy of crossing by himself!

Thinking so, his gaze couldn't help but turn to the Wa Kingdom again. I feel that the progress of the Wa Kingdom is a bit slow, and it would be nice if I could find a way to speed up the progress of the war on the Wa side.

After all, first, a lot of army and navy have now been assembled in North Korea, and the streamlined army of the Nine Sides is still heading for North Korea, and even a few guys in the Beijing camp who want military merits have gone to North Korea.

Second, he is planning North and South America, and the Japanese are a springboard for planning North and South America, and if he takes the Japanese as soon as possible, he will land in North and South America as soon as possible, and it is best to establish a Ming base in North America as soon as possible.

However, now the strength of the Wa Kingdom, whether it is the Tokugawa Shogunate or the coalition army of the Manchu remnants, there are still a lot, and Emperor Chongzhen is a little reluctant, and takes the lives of the Ming soldiers to fight the Wa Kingdom for the vassal kings.

Don't look at the Ming Dynasty, which has a population of about 200 million, but now that the southeast and northwest are expanding, this manpower is still a little tight. In this era, there are few entertainment programs, as for electricity, it is still in the experiment, and it cannot be used for lighting, the people of the Ming Dynasty, up and down, at night, basically there is only one program that makes people to entertain, but it is a pity that the death rate of children is still too high, and the mortality rate of adults because of some minor diseases and disasters is not low. It seems that Daming's medicine must be accelerated.

There is a little common sense in this regard, and Emperor Chongzhen knows it. Now at this time, there are already conditions to solve this matter.

Thinking so, he immediately ordered the three monitoring systems of Dongchang and Jinyiwei, as well as the Metropolitan Procuratorate, to count the births of all parts of the country in the past three years through the chat group.

In this era, marriage is too early, and many girls who should still be in school in the future have become mothers, which is very unscientific. But since ancient times, they have been married and have children so early, and if a direct decree requires that women must reach the age of 18 before getting married and having children, I am afraid that it will attract criticism. It is also not easy to change the concept from top to bottom. Only by speaking through data, counting them, and putting the numbers in front of everyone's eyes, only in this way will there be an effect and be understood by them!

Human life is at stake, if anyone wants to get a girl under the age of eighteen pregnant, let him have less troublesome parts, and see how many people don't cherish it!

Correspondingly, in addition to children's schools, government hospitals should also be set up throughout the country. However, there is too little talent pool in this area, or the discipline of medicine should also be established, otherwise, it is really unrealistic to set up a government-run hospital across the country.

Emperor Chongzhen wrote down this matter in his heart, and then began to think about it for himself again. Chongzhen has been in Beijing for eight years, and he has basically been in Beijing and has not gone out for a walk. Yongping Mansion didn't count that time, it was too close to Jingshi. After the New Year, I will go to the south to take a look and avoid the cold by the way.

Thinking about it, it was getting dark, and it was time for dinner again. Think about it, which concubine will be passed on tonight. Emperor Chongzhen was a little distressed, which was also the reason for his soft-heartedness, so he had to be wet with rain and dew, so he began to arrange this matter for his concubine in his heart.

Compared with his happy troubles, the Manchu puppet emperor Dolgon, who was far away in the Wa Kingdom, was the real trouble.
