Chongzhen listened carefully to the report of the escort officer, and then ordered someone to go to receive the newly arrived weapons, grain and grass, and cotton clothes, and then took the note presented by Tian Shouxin, and looked at it carefully.

The content of the prince's performance is decent, basically a comprehensive version of Jinyiwei and Dongchang's secret music, but it is systematically discussed at a higher level.

One of them was the trade negotiations with the three Spanish countries, and the cabinet made unyielding negotiations on the trade of war armor, war horses, war ships and other materials.

Especially the warships, in line with the strategic goal of balancing the forces of the South Seas, the three countries were more or less forced to sell some warships to the Ming Dynasty.

And the Ming Dynasty was also very simple, opening out three trade lists, and at the same time opening three seaports in Lushun, Tianjin, and Dengzhou for the three countries to go north to do business.

However, in order to make the three countries operate legally and provide sufficient warships, seeds and other materials, the Ming Dynasty agreed to open five seaports south of Shandong within three years, and also booked five river ports in Nanjing, Yangzhou, Guangzhou, Wuchang, and Jiujiang.

Then the prince made a statement on the distribution of the ten boats of seeds in Dengzhou, the efforts made by the imperial court to help the people survive the winter safely, the completion of the division of land in the four northern provinces, and the conscription of soldiers.

It is also mentioned that the Ministry of Industry has found the two silver mines and is in the process of selecting craftsmen and mine guards, so that mining and smelting work can be carried out in the spring.

With these two silver mines, plus the original gold and silver deposits such as the Linglong Gold Mine confiscated by the imperial court, even if the commercial tax revenue could not be collected for a while, the Ming Dynasty would have the money to maintain its rule.

According to the prince, after Li Banghua got the news, he cried excitedly.

Chongzhen believes that this first assistant of the Ming Dynasty wept for the silver of the white flowers, and the second was for the emperor's exhaustive strategy.

Thinking of this, Chongzhen couldn't help but smile slightly.

Tian Shouxin looked at Chongzhen's expression and guessed that the emperor was very satisfied with the prince's work, and he was also happy in his heart.

After all, he used to be the prince's eunuch, and he was born to be the prince's cronies, although he is now serving the emperor in the inner court, but everyone knows that in the future, the prince will inherit the great treasure, and he is still the first person in the inner court.

Chongzhen took a sip of tea and then flipped through it.

The crown prince has closed the clean room outside the Xihua Gate in accordance with the holy decree, and the eunuchs and maids in the palace have also been laid off on a large scale.

Further savings on royal expenses.

And the closure of the clean room is a signal to the hundred officials.

Because this means that the imperial city will not accept new eunuchs in the short term, which is a very happy thing for the civil official group that naturally hates eunuchs.

This can dilute the resistance to the expansion of the East Factory with the dismissed eunuchs - there must be a way for the unemployed eunuchs to live!

Although the cabinet had many obstacles, and some of the eunuchs who had been dismissed were assigned to other departments, the expansion of the East Factory had become a foregone conclusion, and Wang Chengen's power was further expanded.

In addition to these contents, the prince summarized and discussed agriculture, commerce, taxation and other matters from the perspective of the supreme ruler of the Ming Dynasty, and formulated the budget system of the Ming court with the cooperation of the cabinet.

The imperial court budget system is a system in which the imperial power, the cabinet and other administrative and military institutions divide the financial authority and restrain the expenditure, which has far-reaching significance for standardizing the finance of the Ming Dynasty.

Chongzhen attaches great importance to it.

Before leaving Beijing, based on the experience of later generations, he drew up a draft and handed it to the crown prince and the cabinet to ask them to formulate a detailed implementation plan according to the specific situation.

The cabinet knew about the expenditure dilemma of the imperial court in recent years, and was very concerned about this matter, and soon drew up a preliminary plan and sent it to Liaodong.

In accordance with Chongzhen's vision, the cabinet set out to establish a completely new institution: the treasury.

In the future, all revenues of the imperial court will be centrally managed by the national treasury.

All ministries and departments shall budget the expenditure plan for the next year according to their own office needs, and after the court has passed the examination, it shall be filed by the state treasury, and the funds shall be provided in full and on time and according to the facts.

Chongzhen spent nearly two hours carefully studying the initial case of the cabinet, and had a new understanding of the economic level of the Ming literati.

Although they did not understand the economics and accounting knowledge of later generations, their understanding of finance was not low at all.

In particular, they have lived in officialdom for a long time and are well aware of the corruption of ink at all levels, and this time they have specified corresponding measures in advance, which makes Chongzhen very relieved.

In general, Chongzhen is satisfied with this prince.

After all, the crown prince is only seventeen years old, and in his previous life, he was still a high school student at this age, and Zhu Cihong can now handle government affairs more skillfully.

In particular, he already has a sense of balancing the power of the court and the overall situation of the president, which is the most commendable.

What Chongzhen has to do now is just to show him the way forward, and at the same time cultivate his ability to think independently, so as not to be led by Wenchen.

No matter how honest and loyal the Wenchen system is, they will essentially work for the interests of the landlord class, and attach all kinds of good names and legal theories to their actions.

The emperor who can be influenced by them will be praised as a bright monarch, and those who disagree with them will be criticized as a faint monarch.

It is undeniable that some of them are really upright and dedicated to serving the people, but we cannot completely trust and blindly obey the entire civilian clique because of a few of them.

Chongzhen knows that human nature is never trustworthy.

He hopes that his children and grandchildren will also understand this deeply.

Chongzhen rubbed his eyes and closed his eyes for a while.

Tian Shouxin hurriedly refilled him with hot tea and presented it respectfully.

Chongzhen took a sip of tea and said, "If you go to give the prince a reply, just say that I am very satisfied, let him continue to work hard, learn more, and think more."

After the cabinet made a proposal, he must have tried to refute it in his heart, think about the evil, and see if he could think of anything! ”

Tian Shouxin heard a lot of things, but he didn't dare to show them, let alone write them in the holy decree, so he had to pray silently in his heart that the prince could read the deep meaning of the saint.

In the afternoon, a herald hurriedly ran outside the tent of the Chinese army and said loudly: "Your Majesty, the chief of Shenyang City, Dai Shan, go out of the city to beg for surrender!" ”

"Daishan? That Prince Li? ”

Chongzhen muttered to himself, stood up, and asked, "How many people did he bring?" ”

"Brought three people! At present, he is still waiting for the emperor's will outside the southern city of Shenyang. ”

"Let them come, I'll see what they're going to do!"

"Yes!"

A quarter of an hour later, Dai Shan was alone, staggering, and slowly walked to the front of the Chinese military tent.

"Get on your knees!" Tian Shouxin drank.

"When the two countries are at war, how can they bow down!" Daishan refused to kneel.

"Da Ming has never recognized that you are a country!" Tian Shouxin said sharply, "Nurhachi is just my Ming border general, as his second son, how can you not pay homage to the Ming Emperor!" ”

Dai Shan didn't come to quarrel, let alone make the relationship stink, thinking that there were no people of his own clan around him, so he knelt and knelt.

"Hahahaha......"

Seeing Dai Shan kneeling down on his knees, a large burst of laughter rang out outside the Chinese army's tent.
