"After the end of the meeting, Zhang Aiqing immediately went to the Ministry of Personnel to go through the formalities of handing over the documents, and made preparations to go to Suville Province to take up his post. Zhu Youzhen sipped his mouth lightly, he said too much today, and his mouth was dry for a long time.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"Sauvai is an island province, and it is relatively easy to map, so Aiqing has to map the specific shape and size of Sauver Province, especially the Spice Islands, and how many islands there are, and the shape and location of each island, must be marked in detail."

"The minister respectfully obeys the teachings of His Majesty."

"Zhang Aiqing went to Nanyang - Austria, this place will not be called Nanyang in the future, it already belongs to the Ming Dynasty, let's call it the South China Sea, it happens to be the station of the South China Sea Fleet, I finally gave Aiqing two gifts." Zhu Youzhen smiled with a smile, this Suwei Province should be done like this.

"Gifts?" Zhang Ding was both excited and nervous, what a great honor it was for His Majesty the Emperor to give a gift, but he was also a little worried, under the heavy gift, there must be all kinds of huge pressure.

"Haha, don't misunderstand Aiqing," Zhu Youzhen felt that his words might have caused Zhang Ding's misunderstanding, "I will transfer two thousand soldiers from Huguang and enter Suwei Province with Aiqing, only transfer troops, not generals, and when Suwei Province settles down, they will no longer be soldiers, but police officers who specialize in maintaining local law and order, which is equivalent to the arrest of Daming." ”

"Catch fast?" Zhang Ding understood that Zhu Youzhen's gift was to assist him in managing Suwei Province, "Your Majesty, is there still a Ming garrison in Suwei Province?" ”

"No, the South China Sea Fleet is nearby, Aiqing doesn't have to worry about the security outside the island, these policemen are to maintain order on the island, if they are willing to settle their families in Suvay, they will be the first batch of Han people to officially immigrate to Suvay Province, and Aiqing will allocate them an appropriate amount of land."

When Zhu Youzhen became a Burmese province, he planned to use the police to maintain public order, completely liberate the military personnel, and use them exclusively for safeguarding national security, so that the garrisons in various localities could be effectively dismantled in the future.

The current taxation of the Ming Dynasty, the main expenditure is on the military, if it were not for several foreign wars to get some extra silver, the Ministry of Finance simply did not have enough silver to set up education and naturalize the frontier, even if you don't count the government soldiers in various places, the Ming Dynasty is now ~(2)dǐng~(2)diǎn~(2)small~(2) said,.. o▲s_(); There are still too many troops.

The current province of Suwei happens to be a trial diǎn.

"Yes, 陛xià," Zhang Ding diǎndiǎn head, he seemed to understand, Zhu Youzhen had already thought about it, the external security was handed over to the South China Sea Fleet, and the internal security was handed over to the police, "What about the second gift that His Majesty gave to the minister?" It shouldn't be a silver tael, right? ”

"Zhang Aiqing's guess is also right or wrong," Zhu Youzhen laughed, "The taxes of Suwei Province do not need to be handed over to the Ministry of Taxation for five years, all of them remain in the province, part of them are used to distribute officials' salaries and official expenses, and the rest are used to run schools on the island, and every child between the ages of seven and ten must be enrolled in school, learn Chinese, write Chinese characters, and use Chinese names." ”

Seeing that Zhang Ding didn't seem to understand, Zhu Youzhen added, "There is no need to fully blossom to build schools for the time being, just like population registration, starting from Manado and gradually advancing to the central and southern regions." ”

This is another trial of Zhu Youzhen, the Ministry of Taxation is exempt from taxes for five years, and you can exchange it for a basically Sinicized province, the imperial court does not need to put a penny, but just send a few officials, if it takes longer, Zhu Youzhen can also accept it.

Of course, the current Suvay province is still under military management, and there is very little expenditure on official affairs, except for a limited number of officials, there is no need to bear heavy military expenses at all.

The military expenditure was paid by the imperial court, but there was basically no loss to the imperial court, the two thousand soldiers were originally the powder keg of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Youzhen just used the method of diversion and immigration, and gradually dismantled the fuse of these bombs, and after a few years, the two thousand soldiers will be transformed into police, and the imperial court will no longer need to pay military expenses.

As for the South China Sea Fleet guarding Suvay, it was for the future of the Ming Dynasty and the maritime trade routes, even if there was no Suvay Province, the fleet was still in storage, and the imperial court did not add additional expenditures.

"Your Majesty, tax exemption for five years, is unheard of, and it is unfair to other provinces." I heard that Suvay Province has been tax-free for five years, and the Minister of Taxation, Huang Shijun, has quit, and the Ming Dynasty has expanded its territory, and it should increase tax revenue, all of which are tax-free, so what is the use of these lands?

"Since ancient times, Suvay Province has been a weak country and poor people, coupled with the exploitation of Westerners, the people have long been miserable, even if the people get tax exemptions, they are still much poorer than the people in the mainland of the Ming Dynasty, so I gave a five-year recuperation period, and the story of killing chickens and eggs, Aiqing have heard of it, right?"

"This ......" Huang Shijun was speechless for a while, he didn't know the specific situation of the people in Suvay Province at all.

"Huang Aiqing doesn't have to worry about other provinces following suit," Zhu Youzhen didn't care what Huang Shijun wanted to say, "The current Suwei Province doesn't need the Ming Dynasty to put in the silver taels, for example, what if it is recovered in five years at night?" ”

"Your Majesty, the minister agrees to the five-year tax exemption." Cabinet Premier Huang Liji stood up, he already understood what Zhu Youzhen meant, Suwei Province was not originally the land of the Ming Dynasty, tax exemption did not have any loss to the imperial court, through guò five years of sinicization, the island should have a certain foundation, when the time comes, if the imperial court can free up its hands, and then immigrate to Suwei Province, in one fell swoop Sinicization of the whole province, at that time, Suwei Province, only really became a province of the Ming Dynasty.

Huang Liji's support made the cabinet ministers collectively dumbfounded, and Zhu Youzhen saw that there was no opposition in the court, so he said to Zhang Ding: "Zhang Aiqing is still the fourth product now, right?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister is the fourth product!" Zhang Ding chuckled in his heart, from the governor of the fourth grade to the second grade, he suddenly rose four levels, which is too rare in the history of the Ming Dynasty, he originally just asked to go to Suwei Province to serve as a prefect, but he didn't expect Zhu Youzhen to directly appoint him as the governor.

"The current governor of Suwei Province, but Zheng Erpin, has been promoted so much at once, how does Zhang Aiqing plan to repay the imperial court?" Zhu Youzhen really came for Zhang Ding's grade.

"Your Majesty, the minister must do his best and change the land in Suvay Province within five years." Zhang Ding "poofed" and knelt down in the lobby, not daring to come out, and his head fell to the ground.

Zhu Youzhen felt that the atmosphere was a little solemn, and he soothed his tone, "I don't care too much about whether the land reform can be completed within five years, Aiqing must determine specific countermeasures according to the actual situation of the local people, and don't use too much force in everything." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, the minister understands." Zhang Ding was still prostrate on the ground.

"What I am most concerned about is the problem of greed for ink, don't think that Sauvelle Province is far overseas, I will be blinded by it, Sauver Province is still Daming Suvay Province, and Daming's "Anti-Corruption Law" is still valid in Suvay Province."

"The minister must live up to His Majesty's trust, be strict with himself, and be a good example for all officials in Suvay Province." Zhang Ding kowtowed again and again to show his determination.

"Get up, Aiqing doesn't have to be too nervous, this is not my special request to Aiqing, but a unanimous request to all officials in the Ming Dynasty," Zhu Youzhen quickly glanced at the ministers, "It's just that you are in charge of Suwei Province for the first time, don't be unable to control it in the face of a large amount of taxes, I still trust you." ”

"The minister understands, and the minister strictly follows the teachings of His Majesty." Zhang Ding got up from the ground, didn't even dare to wipe the dust off his forehead, and hid behind the ministers with a smoke.

Zhu Youzhen's gaze turned to the map again, "The Malacca waterway is the only sea passage for the exchange between the East and the West, which can be called the throat place, Zheng He set up the largest trade warehouse in Malacca, and in the future, the porcelain, tea, silk, etc. of the Ming Dynasty will be sold to the West, and it must pass through Malacca, and now the South China Sea Fleet has completely controlled Malacca, you Aiqing said, how will the imperial court manage Malacca in the future?" ”

"Your Majesty, since Malacca is so important to the Ming Dynasty, should the South China Sea Fleet establish a base here and garrison it all year round?" Li Chunye had long known that Zhu Youzhen's plan for the surrounding shape was to take the lead in supporting Zhu Youzhen.

"What Aiqing said is very true, since Malacca is an indispensable choke point of the Ming Dynasty, the South China Sea Fleet will naturally be stationed here," Zhu Youzhen set the tone for Malacca before the courtiers spoke, "It's just that Zheng Zhilong is a soldier, he will only operate the South China Sea Fleet, but he will not manage the land and people on both sides of Malacca, and there is also a large number of local people killed by the remnants of Donghu, fortunately, the marines arrived in time to exterminate the remnants of Donghu and save the local people, and now the local people are grateful to the South China Sea Fleet." ”

Zhu Youzhen's words are already very clear, that is, the current Malacca, the army and the people have become one, and it should be better managed than Su Wei, thinking of this, Huang Shijun came out of the class and played: "Since the local people welcome the army of the Ming Dynasty, why not take the opportunity to establish a province here and naturalize the local people as soon as possible?" ”

Huang Shijun's words can be regarded as a kind of compensation for opposing Zhu Youzhen just now, Zhu Youzhen was secretly happy in his heart, but there was no surprise on his face, "Huang Aiqing's words are exactly what I want, now the people of Malacca have returned to their hearts, according to Zheng Zhilong's military newspaper, near Malacca, the people are vying to become Han nationality, and it is the best time for the Ming Dynasty to become the master of Malacca." ”

"Your Majesty, my South China Sea Fleet has just entered Malacca, and the local people are vying to become Han nationals, is Zheng Zhilong's words too much?" Qiao Yunsheng raised his own questions.

"Qiao Aiqing doesn't know," Zhu Youzhen briefly said about the disaster in the Jilunhai and the Malay Peninsula, "The disaster in the Jilunhai Sea, and the local people mistakenly thought that Zheng Zhilong and Zheng Xing were the descendants of Zheng He back then, so the people rushed to return to their hearts. ”

"Ao," Qiao Yunsheng still seemed to be a little unconvinced, "Your Majesty, how many people are vying to join the Han nationality?" ”

"According to Zheng Zhilong's report, near Malacca City, the local people were scared by the Portuguese **, and no less than eighty percent of them joined the Han nationality, and the rest of the people in the north who joined the Han nationality reached at least fifty percent."

"Your Majesty," Li Chunye held the map in his hand, "If Malacca is included in the Ming Dynasty, wouldn't it be connected with Myanmar Province?" ”
