Chapter 302: I want to run away with the money, but there is no door
"Your Majesty, is this too general?"
One of the ministers said softly that he was also a father and could not bear to let his son suffer in the army.
"What do you mean by generality?"
Zhu Houzhao reprimanded angrily: "Could it be that recruiting soldiers can only recruit the children of ordinary people? ”
"I know what you are thinking, my son is heartfelt, this person is normal, but my son is not the same as a habitual son."
"Don't you hear that your habitual son is like a murderer, you let your children and grandchildren live happily outside, and sooner or later you will cause trouble, you have all followed me all the way, you should know my temper, if your children and grandchildren commit crimes, I will never tolerate it."
His tone softened, and he continued: "Instead of staying outside and doing nothing all day, it is better to let go to the army for some training, and there will be some growth after all." ”
"If you can protect future generations for a while, can you still protect them for a lifetime?"
"The army is indeed hard, but it is also the most experienced place, go to the army to experience and experience, and only in the coming days can you become the pillar of the country."
The ministers were speechless, and Zhu Houzhao said all the good and bad things, what else could they do.
"The military service of young men in the whole country is an unprecedented large-scale gesture, and His Majesty's ambition is really admired by the old ministers."
"It's just that all young people go to military service, I'm afraid it's not realistic, the children of the gentry, the descendants of the nobles, there are many lawless people......"
The words of Wang Qiong, the secretary of the Ministry of War, highlight a core: I am afraid of the children of the gentry, and the descendants of the nobles will not obey discipline.
"Since you have entered the army, you are recruits, and you should treat them equally, and if you disobey discipline, you will be dealt with by military law."
Zhu Houzhao is extremely determined, and since he proposed that all young men in the country should serve in the military, he will not make changes easily.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the times have changed, the situation is changing all the time, and if we want to protect ourselves in the torrent, we can only continue to strengthen ourselves."
"A strong country and a strong species should not be in our monarchs, but in all the people in the country, in the young people in the growth stage."
Suddenly stood up from the dragon chair, ambitious in his chest, and poured out to the ministers: "If the youth is strong, the country will be strong, and if the youth is wise, the country will be wise." ”
"I let young men enter the army for training, not intentionally against anyone, but in the hope that the younger generation of me can take on heavy responsibilities."
"If one day, we wait for the monarch and minister to pass away, and the younger generation of our dynasty can also maintain the glory of our dynasty."
"Your Majesty is ambitious, and the ministers are willing to follow."
The ministers bowed to him, the emperor had the ambition of Kunpeng and the heart of swallowing the wind and clouds, how could they, as courtiers, have any reason to oppose it.
It is the wish of every courtier to be famous through the ages, and to leave a name in the history books.
Let the heirs enter the army to serve in the army, and the patience will pass, how can it be made without polishing.
Everyone has the heart of Jackie Chan, but they are just standing at the height of the ministers, and they are more or less doting on their heirs.
"Your Majesty, what is the appropriate age for a young man to serve in the military?"
Yang Tinghe asked.
"Over eighteen, under twenty-two!"
Zhu Houzhao thought about it and said solemnly.
It's not suitable to be too young, what can a child soldier do, it's not good if he's too old, he expanded the army this time, mainly to train the younger generation, and the older ones have no training value.
Eighteen to twenty-two, just right.
The ministers had no objection to this.
"Your Majesty, in recent days, many wealthy businessmen have asked to move to other dynasties, and there are quite a lot of them, how to deal with them, please ask Your Majesty to cut them."
Zuo Liangchen, a member of the household department, played.
"If you make money, you want to run, how can it be so cheap!"
Zhu Houzhao's eyes were cold, why those rich businessmen and giants moved to his dynasty, he knew better than anyone else.
Businessmen are profit-seeking, have no country or home, regard money as the root of their life, and asking for their money is equivalent to asking for their lives.
Since Zhu Houzhao reformed and changed the law, he imposed heavy taxes on businessmen, which has long made many wealthy businessmen very dissatisfied, but Zhu Houzhao has been sending people to keep an eye on them, and he does not dare to act against the imperial court.
Now that the sixteen dynasties of the Ming Dynasty are in the same life, the other dynasties not only do not treat merchants with heavy taxes, but it is even easier to evade taxes, so they all want to run to other dynasties.
Anyway, it is to make money in business, and making money in Zhu Houzhao's Taiwu Dynasty is no different from going to other dynasties to make money.
"It is okay to move to other dynasties, but the wealth earned in our dynasty must remain."
Zhu Houzhao said with a gloomy face.
He made money on his land and ran to spend it elsewhere, but he couldn't bear it.
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid this is inappropriate!"
Zuo Liangchen looked confused.
A large number of wealthy businessmen and tycoons want to move away, shouldn't they be retained, after all, the rich businessmen and tycoons who want to run away have a lot of resources and wealth in their hands, and how many people rely on them to live.
This disagreement will confiscate people's wealth, which is too radical.
"What's wrong?"
Zhu Houzhao's expression was pale, and he didn't care at all: "Since you don't want to be a subject of my dynasty, naturally there is no reason to take the wealth of my dynasty anymore." ”
"Coming naked, going naked, is in line with the natural principles of heaven and earth."
The natural principle of bullshit!
The ministers were speechless, this emperor is talking nonsense, and it is really a set of things.
But they are also very happy in their hearts, those rich businessmen and giants have made a lot of wealth in this dynasty, and they want to run to other dynasties and transfer their wealth, so don't think too beautifully.
And they can be sure and certain that those rich merchants and magnates will not give up their business in this dynasty after moving to other dynasties.
After all, he has been operating in this dynasty for many years, and his connections, resource channels, and trading routes are all perfect, and if he gives up rashly, he doesn't know what he will lose, and with the treacherous cunning of those rich businessmen, he will not let himself suffer.
In front of the subjects of other dynasties, earning the money and wealth of his own dynasty, not to mention that Zhu Houzhao couldn't bear it, the ministers were also unbearable.
If you make money, you want to run, how can there be such a cheap thing, don't think too beautiful.
People can go, but wealth must stay!
It is rare for the ministers to agree with Zhu Houzhao, and they have no good impression of those rich businessmen and tycoons who are ready to run away.
"The minister thinks that what His Majesty said is extremely true, since it is the wealth of our dynasty, how can it be allowed to flow out."
The king of the household department said angrily.
Nowadays, most of the treasury income comes from commercial taxes, and when the merchants run away, who will the household department go to collect taxes, and what should the emperor do when he needs money?
Moreover, the income of the treasury is also related to the income of the ministers, and no one wants to go back to the hard life of the past.
"The ministers seconded it!"
The ministers shouted in unison, just one attitude, people can go, but the money has to stay.
I want to run away with the money, but there is no door.
"Then it is decided, all the rich merchants and magnates who want to move to other dynasties will be allowed to do so, and for the sake of the subjects of our court, they can even send ships to send them to the places they want to move to."
"However, all wealth must be left behind, even a copper plate, and it cannot be left out."
Zhu Houzhao's words were ruthless and resolute, the merchants were restless, and they played with him, so he let the merchants understand what the wrath of thunder was and what was difficult to offend.
Contradicting him on his ground, when he has been silent for the past few years, he won't kill people, right?
