Although King Fu was unwilling, he eventually died, and Apocalypse immediately ordered him to be cut down, and there was no longer the title of King Fu.

As for his wives and concubines, and his heirs, they were all reduced to commoners.

However, they are also relatives of the emperor, and the Apocalypse still stipulates that the household department allocates 2,000 taels of silver to them every year for them to survive.

In fact, two thousand taels is already a very large fortune for ordinary people, but for the extravagant Fu Wang's family, it is naturally a dime.

So after getting the news, Zhu Yousong cried more sadly than anyone else, just about to be better than blue, but I didn't expect that even the title of King Fu was gone, and now it is only two thousand taels of expenses per year, and I have to feed a large family, how can I live.

Thinking of this, the fat on his body fell in an uproar.

Apocalypse didn't have the heart to pay attention to this family anymore, and it was enough for them to enjoy it for so many years.

He inspected the accounts submitted by Wei Zhongxian, except for a part of the allocation, the rest went into the treasury, and the treasury was instantly enriched.

However, the apocalypse knows that now is not the time to be happy, because there will be more and more natural and man-made disasters in the future, and the fiscal revenue will decline year by year, so there are many places where you need to spend money.

For example, Liao's salary alone costs more than 6 million taels a year, and counting the military spending of other parts of the country, it is calculated at 10 million taels.

The annual military expenditure alone will almost exhaust the fiscal revenue, and if there is any other accident, the east wall will have to be torn down to make up the west wall.

Because of this, Chongzhen, who couldn't get money, successively levied additional salaries and training salaries after Liao's salary.

The apocalypse is not ready to take this road, because this is not much different from digging a self-grave, just a liao salary, will make the people of the world miserable, if two more mountains are added to press up, won't it force the people to a dead end?

Why are there more and more rogues? Never finished? Isn't it just that there are more and more people who have no way to live, and they can only rise up and rebel?

Therefore, now that the treasury has money, the apocalypse is not only not prepared to increase taxes, but also to promulgate some policies that benefit the people.

For example, Liao's salary is now an additional nine cents per mu, and he is ready to reduce it to six cents.

He wanted to get rid of it directly, but the Liao salary could increase the financial income by about six million taels a year, and he used to rely on this to support the Liao army.

If it is eliminated all at once, the vacancy of six million taels is not a small amount, and with such a big spending, King Fu's gold and silver mountains will not be able to survive for a few years.

Moreover, this is like doing business, directly hitting the price to the end, if the cost of raw materials and transportation rises in the future, and then wants to increase the price, it is extremely difficult, and it will definitely be sprayed to death.

Therefore, you can't be rash in everything, and you must leave some way back for yourself.

If the economic situation is better in the future, it can be lowered little by little, until it is exempted, and the people will always remember your goodness and be more grateful to Dade.

In addition to tax cuts, Tianqi also decreed that Shaanxi, the hardest-hit country, would be exempted from taxes for three years, so that the people of Shaanxi could breathe a sigh of relief and recuperate.

In fact, this is also a very effective way to deal with the rogues, which can be said to be a salary draw from the bottom of the kettle, because as long as the people still have a way to live, there will naturally be fewer and fewer people who are willing to rebel.

Once there is no large number of displaced people to replenish, the rogues will naturally become fewer and fewer until they are completely wiped out.

As soon as the decree of the Apocalypse was promulgated, the results of Cao Wenzhao's verification of his military exploits came out, and there was no false report.

Apocalypse was overjoyed and immediately issued an order to promote him to a general.

This promotion is not all because of the exploits of the Liukou, he also made meritorious contributions when he fought against Jianlu outside the Guan, but he did not meet the conditions for promotion to general.

Now he has been promoted to a general, which is the result of his promotion through meritorious service, and it is logical.

In the holy decree, the Apocalypse ordered it to continue to suppress the Kou and expand the army and horses.

However, two days before the apocalypse was happy, several bad news came from Shaanxi one after another.

It turned out that since the beginning of this year, dozens of peasant riots have broken out in Yansui Town and Yan'an Prefecture one after another, and the local government is afraid of being responsible, so the matter has been suppressed.

Seeing that the riots were intensifying, they couldn't be suppressed or concealed, so they chose to report it.

Seeing Wang Jiayin, Gao Yingxiang, and Wang Zi using a few familiar names in the song, Tianqi was immediately furious, he was really not afraid of god-like opponents, but afraid of pig-like teammates.

If the riot is reported from the beginning, even if you mobilize elite troops from outside the border, you must quickly extinguish it.

Because although these people did not live to the end in the official history and became grass kings like Li Zicheng and Zhang Zhongxian, they made a very bad start, and their influence was much greater than that of Wang Er, so that more ordinary people could see the possibility of violent resistance to the imperial court.

Since then, peasant revolts have intensified.

In a fit of rage, Tianqi immediately ordered that those who concealed it and did not report it would go up to the prefect and down to the prefect and county, and all of them would be punished and severely punished.

Immediately, the apocalypse ordered Man Gui, who was guarding the mountain customs, to also enter the customs and suppress it.

When Man Gui received the holy decree, he was a little unhappy, feeling that it was a bit overkill to let himself be a dignified general soldier to suppress a group of peasants who did not understand military strategy at all.

Although he complained a little in his heart, Man Gui did not dare to disobey the order, and immediately led his troops into the customs.

During this time, there were many decrees promulgated by the Apocalypse, but they also came in one after another from all over the country, far more than before.

Without him, all places knew that the emperor had copied the Fu Wangfu, and the treasury was full all of a sudden, and they were all staring at the money and grain of the imperial court.

There are those who want military salaries, there are those who ask for funds for relief, and there are those who want to repair dikes and ditches, in short, the reasons are very good, so the apocalypse cannot be ignored.

The problem of military salaries is indeed very serious, and in addition to the salaries, there are arrears in many other places, and there have even been several mutinies for this reason.

There is no way, although Liao Yu occupies the largest head, but it still depends on them to resist Jianyu, and the court does not dare to owe it.

The other border armies have long been rotten, and the imperial court does not need to rely too much on them, so they can owe as much as they owe, and even owe wages for as long as a year.

In addition, many generals drink the blood of soldiers and treat the soldiers under their command as personal slaves, and many soldiers live like beggars, so it's no wonder if something happens.

Apocalypse naturally wants to reorganize the Nine Sides, but the Nine Sides have been abandoned for a long time, and it is not something that can be changed in a short period of time.

Moreover, the Nine Frontier Defense Line is long, and if you want to rebuild it, it may not be enough to invest all 60 million taels into it, and this is still on the premise that the generals are not greedy for ink.

Therefore, it is impossible to build a nine-border defense line to resist Jianyu like the Guanningjin defense line, but it is necessary to strengthen the training of the nine-sided army.

As a result, it is necessary to allocate funds to make up for the arrears of military salaries and ensure that the soldiers can be fed, clothed, and warm.

Today's apocalypse is not like before, nor is it like the ancestors Wanli, Jiajing, and Zhengde who take the country's money for their own enjoyment.

Now he just wants to conscientiously help Daming and prevent Daming from perishing in his own hands, so he doesn't attach much importance to money and is willing to spend it.

But seeing that money is needed everywhere, I suddenly feel that 60 million taels doesn't seem to take long.
