In just half a month, King Yun went to the court, saying that he wanted to go to sea and go to the Americas to open up territory for the court. The emperor naturally gave permission to this matter.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhang Xuan went to the emperor again and asked for the opening of the sea ban, but this time there were no courtiers who objected, because they all knew that the sea ban existed in name only, so it was better to open it. The emperor also agreed.

In addition, the Ministry of War said that it would expand the navy, improve the naval armament, and protect the maritime trade routes, which was supported by the ministers and the cabinet, and the imperial court's income had gradually relied on commerce, and maritime merchants accounted for a very large proportion.

The opening of the sea ban and the expansion of the navy led to the prosperity of coastal commerce and trade, and many cities built new large docks, commerce became increasingly developed, and exchanges between the East and the West increased.

On this day, Zhang Xuan took his family to Li Xunhuan's house for a wedding banquet, and Chen Ju gave her to Li Xunhuan as soon as Lin Shiyin entered the teaching department, and Li Xunhuan married her after removing Lin Shiyin's lowly status.

Seeing Zhang Xuanlai Mansion, Li Xunhuan hurriedly brought Lin Shiyin to greet him, "Shiyin, this is Lord Tian Zhang Xuantian!" Li Xunhuan said with a happy face.

"I've seen Lord Tian!" Lin Shiyin said politely, Zhang Xuan only felt that Lin Shiyin's voice was gentle and her appearance was soft, which was indeed very suitable for Li Xunhuan.

"A beauty!" Zhang Xuan smiled, "Li Xunhuan, you are really blessed!" Zhang Xuan said and followed Li Xunhuan into the inner courtyard, where a group of relatives and friends and high-ranking officials were drinking.

Qian'er and other women naturally entered the women's seat, chatting and laughing with others. Zhang Xuan found out that this Li Xunhuan's family is really extraordinary, and a seven-jinshi is not for fun.

Zhang Xuan and everyone drank and had fun, knowing that the wine banquet was over in the middle of the moon, and when parting, Li Xunhuan took out a secret book, "This is the Treasure of Mercy, and please ask Lord Tian to smile!" Li Xunhuan said.

"Good!" Zhang Xuan's subordinates said to Li Xunhuan, "Drink some tiger bone wine in the future, it's good for your health, you go quickly, don't let the beauty wait for a long time, hahahaha!" Zhang Xuan laughed.

Li Xunhuan was also slightly embarrassed, and after bidding farewell to the guests, he hurriedly returned to the room.

When Zhang Xuan returned to the house, he looked at this pity flower treasure, "It is really a good textbook for walking the rivers and lakes!" Zhang Xuanjie sighed.

Make-up and easy appearance, poisoning and detoxification, medical secrets, surgery, hidden weapon techniques, light exercises, everything. Zhang Xuan even found out in the medical records that Wang Lianhua was still experimenting with limbs and then undergoing surgery, which was really amazing!

"It's a pity that I don't know much about medical Taoism, but I can let someone from Tai Hospital try it!" Zhang Xuanxin said, "Anyway, Hua Tuo in ancient times also had surgery, I believe it will definitely be promoted!" ”

Zhang Xuan mainly looks at this secret weapon technique, and if you look at it carefully, it is indeed an extremely clever technique, and generally the secret weapon is won by quantity, but this Pity Flower Treasure does the opposite.

"No wonder Xiao Li's flying knife only needs one knife, it turns out to turn a hidden weapon into a bright weapon, not to win by skill, but to win by force!" Zhang Xuan exclaimed.

This flying knife technique is not peculiar, Zhang Xuan learned it quickly, but if you want to reach Li Xunhuan's level, you still need to practice diligently.

After that, Zhang Xuan looked at this mental enhancement technique again, this mental enhancement technique used words and eyes to control people's minds, and there were also ways to improve people's spirits, "Yes, it really didn't disappoint me!" Zhang Xuan said with a smile.

"Although it is not a top-notch spiritual cultivation method, it is much stronger than the method I have found myself!" Zhang Xuanxin said, "It seems that this mental technique still has to be used as the main exercise, and it is one body and one spirit with the King Kong Immortal Skill, both inside and outside!" ”

"Why is the master so happy?" Xing'er entered the study, it turned out that it was Xing'er's turn today, "Is there anything good in this book given by Li Xunhuan?" ”

"This treasure book is indeed a rare encyclopedia!" Zhang Xuan smiled, "I also feel amazing when I see it!" Hearing Zhang Xuan's words, Xing'er was also interested and took it over to take a look, but she pouted again, "It turned out to be some tricks to walk the rivers and lakes!" ”

Xing'er married Zhang Xuan, naturally she is pampered, and it is normal to look down on things on the rivers and lakes. Zhang Xuan also cleaned up, and Xing'er waited for Zhang Xuan to wash up and then went to bed together.

Zhang Xuan's life is not turbulent, but there is an undercurrent surging above the court, because the last time the household was stolen, although the emperor suppressed it and did not make a noise, it does not mean that the emperor will treat it as nothing.

Within a year, all the officials of the household department were eliminated and replaced by another group of officials, and Zhang Xuan was also promoted to the secretary of the household department because of his merits, in charge of household affairs and the money bag of the Ming Dynasty.

This household secretary is not a supervisor like the imperial history of the capital, this is a real official position, and the land, household registration, taxes, and salaries of the whole country have to be managed.

Zhang Xuan took office but did not immediately reform, but first familiarized himself with the specific affairs, and then recounted the acres of land in the world, calculated the fields that did not pay taxes, and found that things were not simple.

"Your Majesty, this is the world's acres of land that Weichen has re-ordered to count!" Zhang Xuan presented the fold to the emperor, and the emperor looked at it, and his face became more and more heavy.

"Are you saying that there are six layers of land in the world that are not subject to taxes?" The emperor said angrily, "I treat scholars very well, is this how they repay the court?" ”

"Back to the saint, this cow and sheep live in pursuit of water and grass, and it is inevitable that people will chase money!" Zhang Xuan said, "Fortunately, the current business is prosperous, and it can be supported!" ”

"I still understand the truth of being prepared for danger in times of peace!" The emperor said, "Since Aiqing dares to mention it, she must already have a draft!" ”

"The Emperor Shengming!" Zhang Xuandao, "People who have meritorious fame naturally have to wait, then according to the population of the family, one person is exempted from the tax burden of three acres, and the excess part has to be paid!" ”

"From the emperor's relatives to the common people, even temples and Taoist temples cannot be exempted!" Zhang Xuan said with a smile, "It's good to ensure that readers can study with peace of mind!" ”

"That's a good idea!" The emperor said, "I'm afraid that some people will disagree, after all, they really need to govern the country!" ”

"The emperor doesn't have to be in a hurry!" Zhang Xuan said, "Start with the temple and Taoist temple, the resistance will be much smaller!" And then from top to bottom, find a big official to start, little by little! ”

"That's a good point!" The emperor said, "This matter is a long-term plan, and it is bound to be supported by the cabinet, you go back and add it, and discuss it in a month, and I will find someone to implement this matter at that time!" ”

"Yes!" Zhang Xuan knelt down and returned to the house, very happy, if this matter is done, the Ming Kingdom will become the world's first power!

The country is rich and the people are strong, and money is the key! Zhang Xuan was overjoyed, and Yilin said, "Why is Xianggong so happy?" "Yilin has a beautiful appearance, and after giving birth, her body is full, bright and moving!

Zhang Xuan hugged Yilin and said, "I'm so happy!" As he spoke, he turned around and circled up, Yilin was also shy, and was hugged by Xianggong in broad daylight, but she was very happy!

After a long time, Zhang Xuan calmed down and returned to the study to sort out the folds. Although Zhang Xuan has a general idea, if he wants to implement it, it is still difficult to start!

"If you can't do it, you have to do it!" Zhang Xuan sighed, "You can't let foreigners bully you anymore!" "Zhang Xuan has experienced the world of national arts, and naturally knows the humiliation of weak countries, but now it is an excellent opportunity, if he succeeds, future generations of Chinese will no longer be bullied.

Zhang Xuan had already made a steam engine, this kind of machine was easy to use in the south of the Yangtze River, because of the maritime trade, the silk and silk were not sold, and this kind of steam engine could replace manpower to weave cloth.

There are also people who use this steam engine in the mines, and it is very popular because it is powerful and does not need to rest. Even when some people began to use it to make steam cars, it cannot but be said that human vitality is stimulated by wealth!

"If this land reform is successful, I believe that a capitalist society will soon be born!" Zhang Xuan said in his heart, put down his thoughts again, and began to perfect the starting point.

For more than half a month, Zhang Xuan spent more than half a month in the study, revising and revising, and finally came up with a decent plan.

"It may not be perfect, but it can be implemented!" Zhang Xuanxin said.

Within a few days, the emperor summoned a group of ministers to the Wenhua Hall to discuss matters, in addition to the cabinet ministers, there were also six ministers of Shangshu and the heads of the three departments. The emperor wore his regular clothes today, and everyone sat down to talk.

"The household department has recounted the acres of land in the world," the emperor said, "Let's take a look!" As he spoke, a little eunuch distributed Zhang Xuan's report to everyone.

After everyone saw it, their faces sank, they didn't expect that things had become so bad! The land of the people above and the relatives of the emperor has occupied more than half of the land of the Ming Dynasty!

"Although it is said that the finances have improved in recent years, it is only a little supplemented by commercial taxes," the emperor said, "If there is a natural disaster or a foreign enemy attacks, the treasury will be empty!" ”

Everyone was silent, and after a long time, Li Ge said, "Agriculture is the foundation of the world, this matter is not only related to the fortune of the country, but also about the world's scholars, and please give the ministers some time to consider countermeasures!" ”

Li Ge Lao is the old man's serious words, and everyone is in line with it, "Emperor Qi, Weichen has a foundation!" Hearing this, Zhang Xuan hurriedly interrupted their delusions.

"Okay, Aiqing, please speak!" The emperor said, Zhang Xuan read his revised recital to everyone, and they knew that the emperor had already made a decision in his heart.

After listening, the emperor said, "You Aiqing discuss it, and there is a result in front of me!" With that, he left the Wenhua Palace.

Only Zhang Xuan and a group of important ministers were left. Although Zhang Xuan felt that the sheep was in the tiger's mouth, he still gave all the adults an answer one by one. But how can things be so simple, this matter has been discussed for more than ten days without results.

What's even more terrifying is that this matter spread, and Zhang Xuan became the target of everyone for a while. In the eyes of the common people, they stole a little tax burden and were pointed out, so they naturally hated Zhang Xuan, and the scholars and officials felt that they had been drawn blood and hated Zhang Xuan.

Under the rumors, Zhang Xuan could only close the door and say to the outside world, "The tax burden of the imperial court is only thirty taxes and one, why should you evade taxes!" ”（）
