Jin Yiwei sent it together, as well as the content of this industrial and commercial conference, Chongzhen was very dissatisfied after reading the policy promulgated by Zhao Yan in the industrial and commercial conference, and he couldn't understand what was special about it, but he was stunned by the huge figure of 10 million taels.

When he finished reading "The Theory of Industrial and Commercial Regulations", he was even more taken aback, and realized that the development of industry and commerce could greatly increase the strength of war.

As long as the commercial tax is collected, not only can the financial resources be increased, but with the development of industry and commerce, the war materials will also become more, and Chongzhen, who is trying to balance Zhao Yan, how not to be taken aback.

Chongzhen urgently summoned Yang Sichang and asked about the countermeasures.

"This son is in the army in Shandong to interfere in politics, and this time he held another industrial and commercial conference, and he took out 10 million taels, which is 10 million taels!" When Chongzhen thought of that number, he felt extremely terrifying in his heart.

The imperial court tax revenue is more than 20 million stone rice a year, plus salt tax and so on, it is more than 20 million taels, deducting the royal relatives, civil ministers and military generals, as well as military expenses, etc., every year is beyond their means.

If it weren't for Zhao Yan's annual salt tax of five million taels, and Tian Fuxing's payment of four or five million taels after Shandong's major reform. Otherwise, let him take out five million taels and owe it, even if this is the case, it is absolutely impossible to let him take out ten million taels.

"If this son's strength continues to swell, the consequences will be unimaginable." Chongzhen clenched his fists and said, "He must be allowed to stop immediately." ”

"Your Majesty, the new army has not yet been trained at this moment, so it is not appropriate to act rashly. However, there is some truth in the "Theory of Industrial and Commercial Regulations" written by this son, and His Majesty might as well summon Chen Zhongsheng to imitate it. Yang Sichang said that he also got a copy of "Industrial and Commercial Regulations" from his own channels.

"The salary is 5 million taels, and the tuntian is 3 million taels, and there is no money and food in the interior, so how can there be money to allocate for loans." Chongzhen frowned.

"Your Majesty doesn't need to worry, the minister just received a piece of good news." Yang Sichang said suddenly.

"Oh?" Chongzhen's spirit was shocked, and he asked, "What is the good news, come and talk to me quickly." ”

"Your Majesty, Duoduo sent an envoy to the court, willing to rebuild with the Ming Dynasty as much as possible, call the minister a tribute, and promise never to violate the border." Yang Sichang said happily: "Jianyu is willing to pay tribute, and five million liao salaries can be saved." ”

"If you talk about the ambition of the wolf son, how can I believe it?" Chongzhen frowned.

Yang Sichang said with a smile: "Your Majesty, Jianyu can be dealt with by Zhao Yan, as long as Zhao Yan is supported in Liaodong, they will definitely not dare to invade the pass." If the Jianyu cannot invade the Guannai, the people of Gyeonggi will be able to recuperate, and we will have to take the opportunity to spare money and grain to develop industry and commerce. ”

"And to negotiate peace with Jianyu, Jianyu can not worry about Liaoxi, so that Zhao Yan's soldiers and horses can be dragged in Liaodong and cannot be withdrawn." Yang Sichang said sinisterly, but Chongzhen said suddenly: "What if Zhao Yan is defeated?" Isn't Jianyu a resurgence? ”

"Your Majesty doesn't need to worry, Denglai is already relatively wealthy now, even if he loses, he will still win in the end, with Jianyu's current strength, it is no longer enough to turn defeat into victory. Wouldn't it be wonderful to let them fight to the death with Zhao Yan. Yang Sichang hurriedly explained.

"Hmmm! With this son's ability, Pingliao is enough. Chongzhen nodded and said to Yang Sichang: "Then do it, you go and talk to the envoys of Jianyu, let them call the ministers and pay tribute, and Duoduo will abdicate as king." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Yang Sichang promised.

After Yang Sichang retreated, Chongzhen summoned Chen Zhongsheng again and asked about the law of industrial and commercial development, Chen Zhongsheng frowned and said: "Your Majesty can know that the foundation of industry and commerce is agriculture. ”

"Then why does Zhao Yan want to develop industry and commerce?" Chongzhen asked puzzled.

"It's all because Shandong's output is sufficient." Chen Zhongsheng replied, "Denglai has been tuntian for three years, and in another two years, Denglai and Qingzhou Mansion will enter its heyday, and there will be more grain produced by then." ”

In addition, industry and commerce need technical support, and Zhaojiabao has Denglai Science and Technology Institute, and has started a school to train talents in this area. The people cultivated by the imperial court are all people who read the books of sages and sages, know their taste and forget their origins, and there is no honest and capable officials to manage, so how can they talk about the development of industry and commerce with capital. Chen Zhongsheng said, "Your Majesty does not need to be so anxious, the development of industry and commerce in Shandong, the commercial tax paid is also owned by the imperial court, at present, the world is erosive, the most important thing is to repair the water power, the development of tuntian." ”

"Hmm!" Chongzhen pondered for a long time, and soon nodded, feeling that what Chen Zhongsheng said was very reasonable, and Chen Zhongsheng asked: "Then according to Chen Aiqing's opinion, who should hand over the heavy responsibility of Tuntian?" ”

"In the humble opinion of the minister, it is appropriate for Lu Xiangsheng and Sun Chuanting to preside over Tuntian." Chen Zhongsheng said, and Chongzhen asked, "Why?" ”

Lu Xiangsheng has been following the policy of Denglai Tuntian since eight years, and last year Huguang Tuntian received 800,000 stones. Since Sun Chuanting became the governor of Shaanxi, he also relied on Tuntian to be self-reliant, and received tens of thousands of stones a year, all of which were suitable candidates. Chen Zhongsheng said, "They know the key to Tuntian, and if they let others do the things of Tuntian, they will definitely be full of mistakes and omissions, and they will not be able to do it." ”

Chongzhen nodded, did not express his intentions, the same day Chongzhen issued three holy decrees, ordered the governor Lu Xiangsheng to promote the prime minister of Shanxi, the north of the Tuntian, and follow the law of Shandong, so that the people who occupy the acres of land in the Wei are returned, and those who refuse to return will be confiscated from the family property, and 500,000 taels of reclamation funds will be allocated.

The second holy decree was given to Sun Chuanting, and Sun Chuanting was ordered to rectify the five provincial health centers, namely: Shaanxi, Huguang, Henan, Sichuan, and Lianghuai.

He also ordered Sun Chuanting to follow the law of Shandong and ordered those who encroached on the fields of the Wei Institute to return the entire amount, otherwise the family property would be confiscated. At the same time, he ordered Prime Minister Sun Chuanting to allocate 1 million taels to Tuntian in Huguang and Henan provinces.

The third holy decree was given to Hong Chengchou, ordering Hong Chengchou to encircle and suppress the thieves in the northwest At the same time, he was in charge of the administration of Tuntian, Shaanxi, and also allocated one million taels.

The politics of the two Huai Tuntian were handed over to Zhu Dadian, and there was no money to allocate them. The administration of Tuntian, Sichuan, was handed over to Shao Jiechun, the governor of Sichuan, and 500,000 taels were allocated.

While clearing out the thieves, Chongzhen also assigned the tasks of tuntian in various provinces, and did not listen to Chen Zhongsheng's advice, and entrusted all the tasks to one or two people, but appointed five people.

Lu Xiangsheng was in charge of Shanxi and Beizhili, Sun Chuanting was in charge of Huguang and Henan, Hong Chengchou was in charge of Shaanxi, Zhu Dadian was in charge of Lianghuai, and Shao Jiechun was in charge of Sichuan.

Among them, Sun Chuanting is the most important, when Sun Chuanting was the governor of Shaanxi, Chongzhen did not have enough money and food in his hands, so he promised Sun Chuanting that he could figure it out by himself, and he would bear what happened. Sun Chuanting forcibly carried out Tuntian in Shaanxi, relying on the method of self-reliance and tenacious struggle.

Therefore, Chongzhen attaches more importance to Sun Chuanting, so he handed over the five provincial guards to Sun Chuanting for rectification, and only gave one million taels, Chongzhen also gave Sun Chuanting a secret decree, when the guard was rectified, Sun Chuanting himself figured out a way, as long as he could achieve the goal, what happened, and gave him a top.

The atmosphere of the imperial court suddenly changed, Chongzhen not only had to go to the local officials to suppress the thieves, but also asked them to tuntian, which made Hong Chengchou and Sun Chuanting and Shao Jiechun, the governor of Sichuan, sad.

In contrast, Lu Xiangsheng and Zhu Dadian are much calmer, they want to Tuntian, they can go to Shandong to ask for loans, and they need manpower, so they don't need to worry about this aspect at all.

Sure enough, a few days after Chongzhen gave the holy decree, Zhu Dadian's letter asking for a loan arrived.

Zhao Yan happily lent two million taels, and sent more than 100 people to Lianghuai to help Zhu Dadian reclaim wasteland, and Zhu Dadian was happy.

In this officialdom, it can be described as extremely fortunate to have the support of Zhao Yan, an ally with strong capital.

Lu Xiangsheng's capital is much stronger, he was already in Xuanda last year, and the money and grain that can be transferred this year are enough, but the management personnel are not enough, and after receiving Chongzhen's will, he also wrote to Zhao Yan to ask for someone.

Zhao Yan has a lot of management personnel, as long as they can write and do arithmetic, and the literati who have not worked in the government before, they can all enter the training class, and they can be assigned to the post after learning the management methods, passing the assessment, and memorizing various regulations, and there are no too high academic requirements.

Zhu Dadian and Lu Xiangsheng can only be said to have borrowed people from Zhao Yan, because these people used to do things in the past and are still subject to his anti-corruption network.

The reason why Zhu Dadian and Lu Xiangsheng asked Zhao Yan to borrow someone is also because of this, if they break away from Zhao Yan's control, it will inevitably lead to the breeding of [***], and there is almost no difference between borrowing and not borrowing.

At this time, the good news of North Korea also continued to come back, and the Qing army fell into a state of disorganization, which made Zhao Yan very confused, but 24,000 cavalry troops were put into North Korea, even if the Qing army was organized, it had to fight. What surprised Zhao Yan was that the fat man of Huang Taiji died of illness in North Korea, and this also became the reason why the Qing army was defeated.

At the same time, what makes people puzzled is that Huang Taiji's body and Yue Tuo are missing, judging from the information provided by the surrendered red flag, Yue Tuo probably took a small number of men and horses to hide in the eastern mountains.

The eastern mountains are rarely inhabited, and finding a small army of a few hundred men there is hardly any difference from looking for a needle in a haystack.

The situation in Korea went unexpectedly smoothly and lasted a month to calm down.

According to the statistics of the Liaodong Operational Staff, a total of 38,000 Qing troops were recruited and surrendered within a month, 14,000 Qing troops were killed, and 4,000 Qing troops who were not traced were mostly beaten into small units.

"Mao Yuanyi asked Gongzi if he wanted to deal with the surrendered Qing army according to the original plan?" Yuan'er took the document and said to Zhao Yan.

"According to the original plan, they will all be pulled to mining." Zhao Yan said.

Most of these Qing soldiers are physically strong, and they are afraid that they will run away if they are pulled to build roads, so it is better to manage them by pulling them to mine, and it is difficult to have a chance to escape in the mine.

"Chongzhen has begun to work hard, and General Ben is also going to start exerting his strength." Zhao Yan said with a smile, he seemed to be about to enter the best realm by watching Chongzhen's methods recently.

In the case of the continuous stability of the Ming Dynasty, Zhao Yan must continue to strengthen himself, otherwise he will only be trampled by Chongzhen like a grape in the end.

Therefore, Zhao Yan wants to overwhelm Chongzhen in terms of fame! In terms of strength, we must overwhelm him in an all-round way.
