When Hu Changan heard this, he also smiled and said: "If you go back to Your Majesty, during this time, the household department has collected a total of 30,000 taels of silver in commercial taxes. ”

"Plus some fines and the like, and the household department received a total of 30,000 taels of silver."

At this moment, not only Zhu Yuanzhang, but even the eyes of the ministers widened.

A mere Ying Tiancheng actually collected 30,000 taels of silver in commercial taxes in just one month?

It's a miracle!

You must know that the agricultural tax revenue of the entire Ying Tiancheng for a year is only 50,000 taels of silver.

A mere month's commercial tax can be worth a year's agricultural tax?

It's simply incredible!

What if this business tax is extended to the whole country?

Everyone's eyes suddenly turned red.

According to this posture, if this commercial tax can be promoted throughout the country, then the treasury will be at least ten times fuller than before!

It's ten times more silver, why not?

Whether it's building roads or bridges, the country has money!

However, just when everyone was cheering, Fan Min, the head of the household department, had something to say: "Your Majesty, although it is indeed a good thing to collect business taxes, if you hand over this matter to the household department, the household department will really be too busy!" ”

In recent months, Fan Min has been busy with business taxes.

In the past few months, Fan Min has hardly taken a day off.

At this time, Fan Min's face was already covered with heavy dark circles.

When the rest of the households heard this, they also thought so.

The faces of all the people in the household department were clearly full of exhaustion.

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he also smiled and said: "Since this is the case, how about re-establishing a commercial department outside the six departments?" ”

"Hu Shilang, you will also serve as the first secretary of the Ministry of Commerce!"

There is such a big piece of fat right now, Zhu Yuanzhang naturally can't leave it alone.

Since there is a shortage of manpower, let's recruit more manpower!

This commercial tax must be collected!

When everyone heard this, they all looked at Hu Changan with envious eyes.

This kid surnamed Hu is really powerful!

In less than a year, Hu Changan went directly from a kid who did not have an official position to become one of the six Shangshu of the Ming Dynasty.

This is a rocket promotion!

But everyone was envious, but Hu Changan did not rise the slightest jealousy.

There is no other reason, Hu Changan is too strong.

Just talking about potatoes and alcohol and other things are not something that an idler can get out of.

Good policies, such as the introduction of a business tax, are not something that can be thought of casually.

At least none of the courtiers of the Manchu dynasty came up with the idea of levying a commercial tax.

However, when Hu Changan heard this, he smiled slightly and said: "Your Majesty, if I become the secretary of the Ministry of Commerce, I don't know what the Ministry of Agriculture should do?" ”

Previously, Zhu Yuanzhang had sent Hu Changan to establish a Ministry of Agriculture in addition to the six ministries, which would be used to promote high-yield crops.

Now that the spring plowing season is approaching, it is time for the Ministry of Agriculture to prepare for the formation.

Originally, Hu Changan wanted to organize the establishment of the Ministry of Agriculture after collecting commercial taxes.

However, now that Zhu Yuanzhang has given him an official position as the secretary of the Ministry of Commerce, this matter is very difficult.

It's not necessarily a book from the Ministry of Commerce to be busy with the affairs of the Ministry of Agriculture, right?

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he also smiled: "Hu Shilang, have you heard of the allusion that the capable work harder." ”

"It's really a great blessing for Daming to have a capable minister like you!"

"I think you're in charge of both sides, right?"

"When the Ministry of Agriculture and the Ministry of Commerce are built, you can choose where to become a scholar."

When everyone heard this, they also cast envious glances at Hu Changan.

At this time, their eyes were even hotter.

Hu Changan is really a talent!

At such an age, they are still running for small profits.

But Hu Changan was good, and the two departments competed to invite him to be a scholar.

This is simply an honor that ordinary people dare not imagine!

When Hu Changan heard this, he also smiled slightly and agreed to Zhu Yuanzhang.

As a result, the early dynasty came to an end in the envious eyes of everyone.

After the early dynasty, Hu Changan first came to a side hall in the palace.

This was originally the place where Jinyiwei used to temporarily check the accounts when the household department was committed.

At present, the commercial tax is levied, and these brocade guards must be used.

So, it was reactivated.

At this time, everyone in the side hall was busy in an orderly manner.

Checking the dossier, copying the copy, is simply busy.

Looking at the busy crowd, Hu Changan also cleared his throat and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, this morning, Your Majesty approved us to establish a new department. ”

"This department will be named the Ministry of Commerce."

"In the future, the Ministry of Commerce will specifically collect commercial taxes."

"And you are the first officials of the Ministry of Commerce!"

Now that Zhu Yuanzhang has handed over the right to appoint and dismiss personnel to Hu Changan, Hu Changan is not polite.

These brocade guards are naturally the first officials of the Ministry of Commerce.

After all, there are not too many people who know how to read accounts at the moment.

These brocade guards can just solve Hu Changan's urgent need.

When these brocade guards heard this, they were first surprised, and then they were happy.

Can they, the martial artists, be able to be serious officials?

That's a great thing!

Although Jin Yiwei is majestic when he says it outside, Jin Yiwei also has to deal with some pickled things on a daily basis.

And Jinyiwei's reputation among the people is actually very bad.

Being able to walk in the sun, who still misses the days of walking in the shadows?

All the brocade guards were cheering, and they almost threw the documents in their hands into the sky to celebrate.

Looking at the cheering crowd, Hu Changan also smiled slightly, and found the thousands of households with the highest status among these brocade guards.

Jinyi Wei Qianhu faced Hu Changan, looking a little restrained.

However, Hu Changan seemed very casual.

Looking at Jinyi Wei Qianhu, Hu Changan said with a smile: "A series of miscellaneous matters for the establishment of the Ministry of Commerce in the future will be handed over to you in the future." ”

"You must work hard and don't let me down!"

At present, the prototype of the Ministry of Commerce has been basically established.

Later, you only need to do some chores such as moving.

As the leader, Hu Changan naturally can't do everything himself.

Therefore, Hu Changan needs someone to help him work.

This brocade guard Qianhu has always been cautious and thoughtful, and Hu Changan believes that he can handle the follow-up things well.

When Jinyi Wei Qianhu heard this, he was also excited: "Hu Shilang rest assured, his subordinates will definitely do things well!" ”

Seeing Qianhu's confident appearance, Hu Changan also smiled slightly, and slowly stepped out of the side hall.

At present, the establishment of the Ministry of Agriculture is a more important test.

He also has a gamble to fight with those stubborn old ministers.
