"Emperor, the silver taels from the royal auction house have been sent to the palace, and the servants have counted a total of 26 million taels of silver."

It can be described as shocking, just digesting and raiding the belongings of corrupt officials has made such a huge profit, Zhu Youzhen shook his head and sighed.

"This time, all the silver taels will be sent to the interior, this time Wang Gongchang and the Tianhu Army are training to open Liaodong, and the cost is probably huge."

Zhu Youzhen's behavior this time is actually a new round of attempts, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty has not said anything about collecting taxes on merchants since ancient times, and he has also given up the right to run merchants.

But Zhu Youzhen didn't listen to this, I, the emperor, was almost poor, and you were so rich that you didn't ask me to do business, what are you kidding?

Therefore, I also want to do business, but I will still do business without capital for a while, and I will make all my own money.

This is Zhu Youzhen's attitude.

In the western city of Shuntianfu, a shop on the street has a new plaque.

"Daming Industrial and Commercial Bureau"

At the same time, several wooden boards were erected at the entrance with the latest policies posted.

All shops are required to obtain a business license in accordance with the requirements of the "Daming Jingshi Business Registration Guidelines".

Those who operate commercial activities without a business license within half a month will be sealed.

It can only be redeemed after paying 1,000 taels of silver within half a month, and if it is not redeemed when it expires, it will be directly sealed.

As soon as this move came out, the whole city was in an uproar.

But more people seem to be indifferent to this latest requirement, and are not in a hurry to get this so-called business license in the first place, because everyone knows that a new chapter will be opened from then on - paying taxes.

The manpower drawn from the East Factory and the Jinyi Guard, together with some officials from the original Jingshi, jointly formed the new royal tax collector.

And free of charge to all the merchants who come to receive the industrial and commercial business license to give the purchase, sale and inventory book supervised and printed by the Daming Royal Taxation Bureau.

"Shopkeeper Li, do you say we will handle this new business license?"

"It's definitely going to be done, but I don't know how to collect this commercial tax, I'm afraid that even if I want to do it, I won't be able to explain the tax collection to the owner when the time comes."

"That's right, how can the owner look at the so-called tax bureau to collect taxes, I haven't heard of any shop paying taxes after so many years of business."

"Ugh..."

At this moment, although the businessmen in the capital of Daming were full of sadness, Zhu Youzhen was full of smiles.

A steady stream of silver will immediately be able to enter his pocket, so at present, it is only a pilot for merchants within the scope of Jingshi, but in the future, it will definitely be promoted to the entire Ming Dynasty.

With this experience, the promotion of the following work will be more smooth.

Especially for Gangnam.

To a certain extent, the economic victory can solve the greatest difficulties for Zhu Youzhen.

However, the problem of armament cannot be ignored, and Wang Gongchang has not been to the factory since it was relocated, so he instructed Wang Chengen to set up Wang Gongchang.

After Wang Gongchang moved from Shuntianfu to Tongzhou Huangzhuang, it can be said that it was heavily guarded and fortified.

After all, Zhu Youzhen has emphasized the importance of Wang Gongchang many times, and Rao is a fool who can see that he attaches great importance to Wang Gongchang.

The emperor's guard of honor has not yet arrived, and the guards of the East Factory outside Wang Gong's factory have sent people to report the unlucky guy Xue Fengxiang who has been stationed here in recent days, and they came to greet the emperor's guard of honor.

"Weichen Xue Fengxiang, meet Your Majesty."

Although the trembling Xue Fengxiang has made some achievements in Wang Gong Factory in recent days, he does not dare to forget for a moment the situation of Wang Gong Factory when the emperor was in charge of the Ministry of Industry.

"Aiqing, I heard that you are doing a good job here, I came here today to take a look, don't be nervous, don't be nervous."

"The minister took His Majesty to see, and today's Wang Gong Factory has undergone essential changes compared to the past, not so much relocation as reconstruction."

"According to Your Majesty's explanation, there is only one main work of the current Wang Gong Factory, which is the research and development of this new rifle, and now the research and development is nearing completion and entering the testing stage."

"It has initially entered the mass production stage, and now it can produce 500 per day, and it can reach 1,000 per day in less than a month.

Zhu Youzhen's expression remained unchanged, and he nodded, from the bottom of his heart, he was still very satisfied with Xue Fengxiang's ability.

Of course, this is also the reason why Zhu Youzhen dared to put it directly in this position, the Tianhu Army is not so much a new army for training, but a new army for new rifles.

If there is no Migne rifle, then this so-called new army will probably become a joke, but I don't know what the training in the current Tianhu Army still uses wooden sticks, what are they waiting for.

Isn't it this new big killer?

When all the Minne rifles are in place, they will definitely be able to teach the Emperor Taiji of Liaodong a hard lesson.

Let those slaves know what technology looks like.

"Passing on the decree to the cabinet, Xue Fengxiang will be a scholar of Prince Taibao University, and he will enter the cabinet in the first year."

"Thank you!"

What a surprise!

It's a surprise!

Xue Fengxiang never dreamed that he would be able to enter the cabinet in one fell swoop with this behavior.

This is the old man that countless people dream of.

"Okay, let's take me to see this Wang Gong factory."

"Obey."

"This is a steel-making furnace, which was built by combining the old method with the emperor's new steel-making manual, and can be used to smelt iron ingots from all over the country into the steel needed for new rifles."

"This is a pressing workshop where the smelted steel is made into ingots."

"This is a smelting workshop, and the main thing is to beat the ingots again to remove carbon and send them to the next workshop."

"This is the most important workshop for rolling, and it is here that the steel is rolled into gun barrels."

"There is also a rifling workshop, an assembly workshop, a calibration workshop in the back..."

The group looked at it like this, and Zhu Youzhen was full of interest and not tired at all.

I just don't think I can see enough.

"Okay... All right... If one day it can produce 10,000 sticks per day, how can there be anything in this world! Passed on, all craftsmen will be promoted to one level and rewarded with one hundred taels of silver each! ”

"The minister has thanked Your Majesty for the craftsman in Wang Gong's factory..."

"Your Majesty, not only that, but now the research and development of ammunition in Wang Gong's factory has long been over, and the unified ammunition in the paper package has been successfully developed and passed the test, reaching the indicators required in the manual."

"Okay..."

Coming back from Wang Gong's factory, Zhu Youzhen's biggest heart disease is counted, and this phobia of insufficient firepower is engraved in Zhu Youzhen's bones.

At present, the combat effectiveness of Manchurian Jiannu can be described as very strong, and although Huang Taiji, who has not suffered a big loss, is gradually expanding, he is still cunning and abnormal.

I have to guard against it...

"The Emperor... The Tartar knocked..."

Wang Chengen's report opened a new chapter, and Huang Taiji couldn't sit still after all.
