Chapter 416: Private Money

That's the truth.

Zhu Jun expressed his appreciation for Li Zhilong's enlightenment, and began to calculate the funds for the construction of the new city, after all, with a population of 600,000 at one time, the scale of the city is naturally not weak, but fortunately, the foundation has been laid in the original opening area, and what to do is to expand on the original basis, the Chi Road has also been built, and the port still needs to be built, as for the city wall, it is not necessary. When did the Ming army attack the city, will it care about the obstruction of the city wall?

Now there are almost 11 million taels of silver in the treasury, and the taxes just collected this year have been allocated to Jiangnan to improve the infrastructure in a few days, and at least 80 million taels of these 7 million taels of silver are ready to pay military salaries and officials, but last time the Ottomans ordered 55,000 cymbals and gave a deposit of 1 million taels of silver, and Britain, France, and Spain also paid for some warships, almost two million, and in a few months, the imperial court will be able to deliver a batch of cymbals. At least four million taels of silver could be obtained from the Ottomans, so that there would be silver to use. Zhu Jun is actually very depressed, the treasury income of the imperial court is getting higher and higher, although the tax rate is not high, but this year's treasury income is still 30 million taels of silver, even so, there are more places to spend silver, a certain place to build a gallop road, a certain place to build a port, the larger the land area, the more gallop roads and ports to be built, to raise soldiers, officials will naturally increase, especially during the exhibition period, a road is tens of millions of taels of silver into it, it really makes Zhu Jun tremble.

Now it is possible to squeeze out five million taels of silver to build a new city, but Zhu Jun has a relatively large appetite, and he hopes to be perfect in everything, obviously, five million taels of silver to build a super city with a population of nearly one million is really reluctant, in Li Zhilong's view, the emperor seems to be worried about the livelihood of the displaced people, in fact, Zhu Jun is really at war in heaven and man, in fact, in addition to the treasury silver, Zhu Jun also has an inner treasury, if the treasury is the property of the Ming Dynasty, Then this inner library is a real private treasure of the Ming Dynasty.

Now there are at least seven million taels of silver in the inner treasury, as well as more than 100 factory equity books, these money is not Zhu Jun moved from the treasury, in fact, Zhu Jun has long had the inner treasury, but this inner treasury is not much silver, but the exiled government from Nanjing brought all kinds of treasures, what a famous painting, treasures such as treasure jade can almost fill a house, and there is the Ming Dynasty sailor robbed the wealth of other countries, the silver is naturally included in the treasury, but the treasures of these countries naturally cannot enter the treasury, Of course, it has to be collected in the inner treasury, and there are treasures that each vassal country pays tribute every year, think about it, what does it mean to have a whole room of treasures?

It's hard to say, but for the real Zhu Jun, this means silver, everything is fake, is Tang Yin's calligraphy and painting amazing? What is the rarity of big pearls? Pearls can't be eaten as food, jadeite is worn too far away, what is real? Silver!

Zhu Jun did not hesitate to let all the dazzling treasures let the henchmen eunuchs go out to sell, there are more rich people in Haidu than dogs, people are not short of silver, what is lacking is identity, what is lacking is taste, a pair of Tang Yin's calligraphy and paintings are placed at the door, not only showing the wealth of the master, but also indirectly showing the master's deep understanding of art, a few years later, Zhu Jun has become the largest secret treasure supplier in Haidu City, and the treasures he got rid of account for at least half of the treasures in Haidu, often a certain feudal country tribute inlaid with gold ivory ornaments has just been sent to the inner treasury, On the second day, it fell into the courtyard of a mob to hang, therefore, Zhu Jun also accumulated a lot of wealth in the treasury, of course, he is not a person who guards the silver and other moldy land, so he naturally took it out to invest, therefore, many large shops or factories in Haidu have royal shares, and there are five million taels of silver in dividends a year, and as soon as the silver arrives, Zhu Jun continues to invest, all in all, as long as it is a large-scale industry, there is Zhu Jun's capital to invest in it, if it is a single asset, I'm afraid that Zhu Jun is already the biggest capitalist in the Ming Dynasty.

For these assets, Zhu Jun is very far-reaching, he personally summoned the civil and military officials, formulated the Ming Emperor is not allowed to move the treasury silver law, that is to say, in addition to the annual treasury allocated more than 100,000 taels of silver for royal use and palace repairs, the rest of the silver emperor has no right to use the slightest, and this rule is written into the page of the Ming law, future generations of descendants who touch this iron law, is a great disrespect, from then on will not be the descendants of the Zhu family, this is the formation of the ancestral system, Zhu Jun believes that even if he dies in the future, This ancestral system can also continue to be implemented, firstly, with the strength of the Ming officials, coupled with the ability of the latter, it is difficult for the emperor to reach out to the treasury, and secondly

Is there an inner library? Thirty years later, it is definitely an astonishing amount, and the dividends of those shares are enough for children and grandchildren to squander for a year.

Now Zhu Jun is thinking about whether to invest some cash in the inner treasury to go into the construction of Shanghai first, anyway, there is silver, the share capital of the major shops and factories is still there, and these cash silver can be collected back at most as two years of dividends from the savings, Zhu Jun thought for a long time, and finally came up with a compromise method: "I will ask the household department to allocate five million taels of silver to expand the Shanghai New City and build the Shanghai port, and I will take out another two million silver to build some peaceful places for the homeless, one room per person, and the place should not be too large. Just make do with people. ”

Li Zhilong made a silent calculation in his heart. The money should be barely spent. Specifically, we have to go back and calculate it in detail. nodded and said: "Weichen will live up to the emperor's expectations." The emperor is sympathetic and loves the people. Weichen admired. ”

Zhu Jun almost laughed. With these two million taels of silver, he still felt sorry for the old man for a long time. Although he is not an overly money-greedy person. But these are the things he left behind for his children and grandchildren. What is the world is not the king's land, the shore of the land is not the king's minister, in fact, it is nonsense. If everything is the emperor's land. Back then, Di Chongzhen would not have thought about getting money to make up for military salaries all day long. There won't be a shortage of money for disaster relief. Full of people as soon as they entered. Today you are still your courtiers. Maybe the next day he will shake his ass and be a slave to others. One way or another. Money in hand. The heart will not be deserted. What Zhu Jun wants to do now is to invest in as many industries as possible. In the future, the descendants of the earth will not do anything. Just count on these industries to eat interest. Just don't mess around.

"Alright. Go down. As soon as possible, the resettlement of displaced people should be put on display. When I returned to Haidu. Just board the ship from Shanghai. By the way, take a look at this Matsue Mansion. Zhu Jun looked tired. Picking up a lamp on the table, the little eunuch put on the new ground tea and took a sip without grace.

"Wechen retired." Li Zhilong got up and said goodbye.

On the water surface of Baiyangdian Lake. Tens of thousands of soldiers dressed in uniforms were busy mooring on the surface ships. The shouting rang out. Kangxi has come to a clear purpose. Ordered the sailors to unify the sea and immediately go to sea. After two years of training here, the geomariner is finally going to sea. Today, the entire fleet, large and small, more than 300 ships are anchoring and raising their sails. Follow the Daqing River to the south. to the vicinity of the 16th Fort and the confluence of the Ziya River. Through the Xihe Gate to Tianjin into the sea.

In the past two years, he has worked hard to learn naval warfare knowledge from the Dutch and Shi Lang, and trained the sailors, waiting for the day to be able to let the sailors enter the sea, and today he finally got what he wanted, but he inevitably felt uneasy in his heart, he knew better than anyone that these three hundred warships were the last belongings saved by gritting his teeth under the internal and external difficulties of the imperial court, and they were also the only strength of the Qing Dynasty to deal with the Nanming Navy. Once lost, it will be doomed.

Tu Hai is a Manchurian Zhenghuang Banner people, and his people are also regarded as the outliers among the Manchus who walk dogs and tease birds all day long, so Kangxi was the general of Dingxi in the second year, and made meritorious contributions to the suppression of the rebellion, and immediately emerged in the Kangxi Dynasty, and then returned to Beijing to serve, and the errands he did were also very proper, until Kangxi was in power, and the formation of the water division was lacking in the unified name, to say that this water division is not everyone can be, first, to ensure that its people have absolute loyalty to the Qing Dynasty, at least the Han people can not use. Secondly, it can't be a waste, you must have some real talent and real learning, about this, there is really no one among the Manchurians who have any research on the naval warfare of the sailors, therefore, Kangxi can only take a step back, no matter what he is familiar with in water warfare, at least he will not faint when he stands on the boat, he has to fight the battle, and he must be willing to work hard. Without asking, this person is none other than Tuhai.

Tu Hai did not live up to Kangxi's attention, two years later, he trained all day and did not slack off, if it were not for the limitations of Baiyangdian belonging to the inner lake, he could not practice tactics in the sea, I am afraid that this naval division has already become an elite division, and now Tuhai is standing on the side of the ship, he will command the naval division into the sea to test the results of the past two years.

It seems that there will be a big victory, because the opinions of book friends say that the younger brother's writing is too smooth, so I will write more carefully in the future, and I am ashamed.
