After the meeting held by Zhang Hongbin, it would be pure nonsense to say that Daqin's technology has entered the highway.

Any technology needs a cumulative process, and the most important thing is the accumulation of basic knowledge. Mathematics, physics, chemistry and many other disciplines can create miracles in the field of technology.

The current Daqin can only be said to be constantly innovating on the basis of traditional Chinese craftsmanship, but it is completely blind to physics and chemistry. And most importantly, nine and a half out of ten craftsmen in China are illiterate, and the last half are semi-literate. Even if Zhang Hongbin gives them the most advanced science and technology textbooks at the moment, they may not be able to understand it, and if they learn some specious things, it will be Daqin itself that will be harmed in the end.

Basic education, the popularization of physical chemistry after junior high school, the construction of the first university of science and technology, the laying of the foundation stone of the first polytechnic university, and the beginning of the first technical college. Zhang Hongbin knows that if a force wants to progress, science and technology are the first element, and the foundation of scientific and technological improvement is talent, and talent needs to be cultivated.

Therefore, in order to think about it for a long time, he must promote education. He also believes that Huaxia is a place where talents come out in large numbers, and as long as talents are given a stage, talents can create an era for Daqin. As a result, here in Daqin, education has become the place with the most financial allocation from the government, and it is also the place with the strictest management. The annual expenditure on education accounts for 35 per cent of the total fiscal revenue, which is 5 per cent more than the 30 per cent of the military.

In Daqin, the least amount of financial allocation is in the agricultural field, after all, at present, even for a long time, agricultural output is enough for Daqin's basic consumption. Therefore, in the next three to five years, unless there are special circumstances, the sector with the least financial allocation will be the sector with the least financial allocation, only about 3%.

Don't look at this 3% seems to be very little, but last year, that is, in 1851 of the first emperor's calendar, the total fiscal revenue has been as high as 10 million taels, of which the income from foreign trade accounts for the majority of the income, not to mention, the increase in local fiscal revenue is also very gratifying to Zhang Hongbin. Without the so-called privileged class, the gentry paid taxes in an integrated manner, and at the same time measured the land to ensure that there would be no concealment and omission. The tax is not high, and Zhang Hongbin promised that unless there are any special circumstances, it will not be increased for the rest of his life, and he also said that even if there are any special circumstances, a national meeting will be held to openly discuss the issue of tax increase, and if the people do not agree, then cancel it.

The families who have been guaranteed have not yet realized the importance of opening up the people's wisdom and public opinion control, and do not have a long-term world view and development outlook, thinking that since Zhang Hongbin said so, then according to their influence on the ordinary people, it is completely possible to control the people's refusal to raise taxes, and when the time comes, it will be this tax rate for a hundred years and a thousand years, which is much better than the Ming Dynasty.

In the long run, it is natural that they are very happy to accept this tax rate. After all, they all got on the thief ship of Daqin, and they didn't want Daqin to be exterminated by Daming because of no taxes. Only the stronger Great Qin is, the greater the benefits they will be able to gain.

Last year, Daqin's annual income was 10 million taels of silver, which was close to one-fifth of Daming's total financial income. This is only the financial revenue of a place in Shaanxi, if Chongzhen knows, I am afraid that the table will break out again. In the end, I must have been lying on my queen's knee in pain, shouting at my courtiers to bully me.

Also, a dynasty that controls the salt and iron of the world and occupies such a large area of the country has an annual income of more than 50 million taels, or even less. Thinking about it, it's also sad enough. However, the political environment of the Ming Dynasty has collapsed, and even if Chongzhen wants to turn the tide, he is afraid that the courtiers will not be happy. Those eunuchs who occupy the patent of salt and iron and fill their own pockets are afraid and will not be willing. is really urgent, Chongzhen is really alone, and if he doesn't end well, it will be his father and brother's fate.

10 million taels of silver, of which 3% is 300,000 taels of silver, and Shaanxi's agricultural planning and initial investment have been completed, and it is in the stage of feeding back and does not need to be ignored for the time being. Shanxi Taiyuan Mansion and Pingyang Mansion also faintly refer to Shaanxi's agricultural business model, so there is no need for large-scale investment, only the investment in Xichuan Baoning Mansion is larger, and 300,000 taels is indeed enough After all, Daqin's political supervision system is very strict, and in the case of fully mobilizing 300,000 taels, it can completely cope with the early agricultural investment of a prefecture.

There is no problem with politics for the time being, and Zhang Hongbin's eyes are naturally devoted to the handling of Shanxi Jin merchants.

Internal security was fully mobilized to covertly investigate his criminal record from house to house. I have to say that he is worthy of being a profiteer who secretly fornicates with foreign countries, and his sense of self-crisis is very strict, so there are many more guards and sentry guards than ordinary people.

Rao is like this, the internal guard still tried his best to get in, and still got the evidence that Zhang Hongbin needed.

I don't know if I don't see it, I was shocked when I saw it, and the big businessmen who have reached the grade, such as the Qiao family, the Chang family and the Cao family, all have obvious records of dealings with Houjin. A large number of forbidden materials were transported to Houjin in a steady stream. At the same time, the family members and subordinates of the three families also played the role of Houjin spies, acting as pawns for the Houjin Raiders and Ming Dynasty, exploring local defenses, confirming the local geographical environment, and they were all ahead of everyone.

TOEFL, information in Shanxi and even some surrounding areas, Houjin can get it first-hand. There were even some times when Houjin went south, and they also assisted Houjin to deceive and open the city gate and help them conquer the city. It can be said that in the so-called Manchu Qing Dynasty, Jin merchants used the blood of their compatriots to dye the official and merchant hats on their heads. It is nothing more than ancient officials and merchants, known as red-capped merchants.

Excluding the three largest merchants, the other merchants are more or less entangled with Houjin. This is also the general environment, if you don't invest in it, you will inevitably be excluded. Moreover, they are not really flattering Houjin, but doing business with Houjin. There is no need to be flattering, just need to sell the materials needed for Houjin and trade them at the normal market price, which is the best flattery.

These materials became the military supplies of the Later Jin, became their sabers, became their bows and arrows, and even became their artillery and cannonballs. In the end, these things were waved directly at the heads of the people of the Ming Dynasty, creating one bloody case after another.

Thinking of this, if Zhang Hongbin has no hatred for Jin Shang at all, then he is simply sorry for the strong Han blood in his body.

Sortie, the internal guard and the Shanxi garrison attacked at the first time.

As a result, the Qiao family, the Chang family, and the Cao family were immediately charged, all the family members were imprisoned, and all shops and properties were seized. At this stage, Zhang Hongbin has no intention of executing them immediately. He wants everyone to know the face of Jin merchants, and he wants to let all the merchants in the world learn from it. If there is something unpleasant to say, it is that he wants to stand on the highest moral point and criticize this group of traitors, instead of secretly enriching the property of these merchants, saving them from being gossiped about and making the merchants under his rule tremble.

Not to mention anything else, when these merchants were seized, the merchants of Shaanxi and Shanxi, and even Baoning Prefecture began to be sincerely afraid after receiving the news. I was afraid that Zhang Hongbin was short of money, so he used the knife on the heads of these three families. Since ancient times, the government has the habit of slaughtering fat sheep, God knows if the three of them are slaughtered fat sheep? If Daqin also has the habit of slaughtering fat sheep, God knows when it will be slaughtered on his head...... If you think of this, if you can be indifferent, it's a pure joke.

Fortunately, Zhang Hongbin publicly posted some charges of the three families in a weekly magazine, and at the same time said that he would publicly announce the trial. If the people present feel that these people should not die, then he can spare these people. At the same time, the date of the sentencing conference was announced.

Everyone was very curious, how could His Royal Highness King Qin be different from other people in power, and why did he take such a fancy to the views of the people?

Forget it, I can't say that His Royal Highness King Qin likes this mouthful, don't worry about it so much, just go and see this so-called judgment conference when the time comes.

With this in mind, everyone is looking forward to the holding of the conference.
