When Jiajing's words fell, Yan Song and Xu Jie's breathing unconsciously became short.

Immediately, just as Yan Song was organizing the language in his mind and was about to stand up, he saw Xu Jie standing up first, and Cheng Zhu proposed to Jiajing in his chest.

"Your Majesty, Wei Chen thinks that it is better to distribute these 360,000 mu of land equally to the local people who have no land according to what the imperial court implemented in Fujian at the beginning?"

Seeing this, Yan Song on the side glanced at Xu Jie quietly, and couldn't help gritting his teeth and hating.

"This damn Xu Jie, obviously I also planned to make this suggestion to His Majesty, but unfortunately, he was one step ahead!"

Sure enough, after listening to Xu Jie's proposal, Jiajing's eyes flashed with an inexplicable look, nodded, and immediately spoke.

"Elder Xu Ge is right, I also think it's time to distribute this part of the land to the local people who don't have land!"

When Jiajing said this, he turned his gaze to Xu Jie, and asked unhurriedly.

"I remember that when Xu Ge sent people to Fujian, he distributed the land obtained from those big families to the local people who did not have land, right?"

When Xu Jie heard Jiajing's words, he couldn't help but lower his head, and then said humbly.

"All this is the credit of Your Majesty, if it is not for Your Majesty's strong support, I am afraid that it will ......"

Before Xu Jie's words were finished, he was coldly interrupted by Jiajing: "Xu Jie, you don't have to be humble, I have seen these things in my eyes, and you have done a good job!" ”

When Jiajing said this, he paused for a moment, and then spoke out.

"It is precisely because of this that I plan to hand over this matter to you, and Ling Xu Jie, who is responsible for the distribution of these 360,000 acres of land!"

"Xu Jie, what do you think?"

After Jiajing finished speaking, his eyes fell on Xu Jie's body, waiting for his answer.

At this moment, Xu Jie had already fallen into a sluggish state, what he didn't expect was that the emperor would hand over such a heavy task to himself without saying a word.

If you can do this well, it will definitely be a great achievement, and your weight in Your Majesty's heart will also be greatly improved!

After thinking about it for a long time, I saw Xu Jie come back to his senses, kneel on the ground with a 'plop', and answer in a deep voice.

"Obey, Your Majesty, Weichen will definitely handle this matter well, if anything goes wrong in the middle, please ask Your Majesty to ask me!"

Jiajing was very satisfied with Xu Jie's answer, nodded imperceptibly, and immediately responded.

"Well, get up, Xu Jie, I'm waiting for your good news!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Seeing that Jiajing had made the final decision to let Xu Jie preside over the distribution of the 360,000 mu of land, even though he was unwilling in his heart, Yan Song had to pinch his nose and admit it.

At this moment, Jiajing's voice sounded again: "Okay, since this matter has been decided, let's talk about how to spend the 80 million taels of silver!" ”

Hearing this, Yan Song and Xu Jie immediately cheered up their spirits, held their breath, and did not dare to miss a word.

Jiajing swept his gaze over Yan Song and Xu Jie's bodies respectively, and then said slowly.

"I plan to take out five million taels of silver from it to recruit craftsmen and speed up the research of the steam engine!"

"In addition, the Ordnance Division also needs to increase investment, after all, in the last battle with the Tatars, the new weapons manufactured by the Ordnance Division have proven their value, and the development of firecrackers with a longer firing range, faster reloading, and greater power is the next goal!"

"In addition, with the further development of maritime trade, there are more and more places where sailors are needed, whether it is to protect merchant ships for trade, or to deal with pirates at sea, I plan to build another sailor, what do you think?"

When Jiajing's words fell, Yan Song and Xu Jie couldn't help but fall silent, and Xu Jie, who was on the side, began to calculate in his mind how much silver Jiajing proposed.

"Five million taels of silver to recruit craftsmen to develop steam engines, and the Ordnance Division has to invest at least five or six million taels to develop new weapons, and it will cost eight million taels to build another water division, and there are still three water divisions under construction!"

Soon, Xu Jie came to the conclusion that the emperor spent nearly 20 million taels with a wave of his hand!

"Is this what it's like to be rich?"

Xu Jie thought so, and immediately came back to his senses, and agreed with Jiajing's idea without any delay.

"Your Majesty Shengming, after the 80 million taels of silver are transported to the capital, the household department will immediately transfer the silver!"

After Xu Jie, Yan Song on the side also reacted, and followed closely with Ying Hedao.

"Your Majesty, Weichen thinks so too!"

Jiajing saw that Yan Song and Xu Jie agreed so happily, and a look of surprise couldn't help but appear on his face.

But then, I saw Yan Song and Xu Jie glance at each other, and then they each withdrew their gazes, and after Yan Song organized the language in his mind, he mustered up the courage and proposed to Jiajing.

"Your Majesty, it will be summer in a month or two, when the precipitation will inevitably increase, and those old dikes built in previous years lack repair, and under the majestic rain, if you are not careful, there is a risk of bursting the dike!"

"And once this happens, it will be the local people who will suffer!"

"Therefore, Weichen proposes to repair the old dikes that have not been maintained for a long time a few years ago, and the dikes on the banks of the Yellow River are also time to be reinforced!"

When Yan Song's words fell, Xu Jie, who was on the side, also followed closely with Ying Hedao.

"Yes, Your Majesty, Elder Yan Ge is right, this can prevent it from happening, and when the levee collapses, it will be too late!"

After Yan Song and Xu Jie finished expounding their views, they knelt on the ground together, waiting for Jiajing's decision anxiously.

After listening to Yan Song and Xu Jie's words, an inexplicable smile suddenly appeared on Jiajing's face, and he saw that he glanced at Yan Song and Xu Jie's bodies respectively, and said to himself silently.

"Hmph, it's no wonder that you two didn't dare to raise any objections to these measures of mine before, it turned out that you were waiting for me here!"

After thinking for a while, Jiajing quickly came back to his senses, and after pondering for a while, he commanded unhurriedly.

"You two have made a very good suggestion, and it's time for those dikes to be repaired, and this proposal has been approved!"

When Jiajing said this, he turned his gaze to Xu Jie, and continued to add.

"Xu Jie, after coming down later, the two of you will discuss how much silver it will cost, and after the discussion is completed, the household department will make a report and send it directly to the celebrant to approve the red!"

Yan Song and Xu Jie, who were kneeling on the ground, flashed with shock on their faces after listening to Jiajing's instructions.

Immediately, I saw that the two of them reacted, bowed respectfully on the ground three times, and said in a deep voice.

"Your Majesty Shengming, Weichen is willing to smear your Majesty's liver and brain, and never give up!"

At this moment, in the hearts of Yan Song and Xu Jie, their gratitude to Jiajing has reached the point of being incomprehensible, after all, His Majesty did not forget to give them a piece of the pie while taking the lion's share!

Jiajing took in the expressions of gratitude on Yan Song and Xu Jie's faces, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly, and said secretly.

"If you take the money, you will take care of it for me, anyway, in the end, you are just keeping it for me temporarily!"

Jiajing thought so, and immediately came back to his senses, and after coughing lightly, he spoke.

"Besides, I don't want the incident of the river supervising Li Xuan to happen again, understand?"

Yan Song and Xu Jie, who were kneeling on the ground, heard Jiajing's words, and immediately looked grim and responded respectfully.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

In their opinion, this is Jiajing warning himself in disguise, it is okay to take silver from it, but it must be of good quality and quantity.

If something goes wrong with the next embankment in a short period of time, then the two of them will have to bear the wrath of the emperor!
