Chapter 68: Jiajing: So Much Money???

For the people of Europa, the opening of the Ming Dynasty is a great joy for them, and the gold and silver from the Americas are really good that there is no place for them to spend.

Compared with some coastal Ming merchants, the city can undoubtedly undertake more.

The big ships were soon full of goods.

Even because it was too heavy, when I left the port, the speed involuntarily slowed down.

And this has undoubtedly become an opportunity for some people.

Just a few dozen miles away from the port.

Boats appeared on the surface of the sea in an instant.

These ships were obviously not as large as the Europa, but they were extremely numerous, and they were directly approaching these Europa ships.

"Damn it, my God, it's a pirate!"

"Quick, quick!"

There was an exclamation from the Europa on board.

The whole ship immediately began to commotion.

However, there are so many goods that even if they want to speed up at the moment, they can't do it at all.

As the "pirates" who have been dealing with the Europa people all year round, they naturally know how to deal with these Europa, even if these Europa people sometimes become pirates, they are still a lot worse than the professional-level skills of the Ming Dynasty.

Just like Zheng Zhilong, who was able to press the Europa people to the ground and rub them in the last years of the Ming Dynasty.

This era is not much different either.

After all, if you want to do business with the Europas, at least you have to win, otherwise there is no hope.

And on top of the small ships, a famous pirate, nay, maybe a wolf, was very excited at the moment.

I'm going to pounce on it.

But at this moment, ships suddenly appeared on the surface of the sea.

The speed of those ships was like an arrow from a string, and they were still on the distant sea, and in just a moment, the distance passed in an instant.

"Don't kill all the Wokog!"

On a flying scissor sailboat, Yu Dayou opened his mouth coldly.

"Yes!"

A soldier responded.

The next moment, the thirty or so scissor sailing ships rushed directly towards the pirates' small boats.

The speed of the scissor sailboat is beyond imagination.

Soon the ships came into direct contact with the boats.

Fighting soon broke out.

In the midst of the artillery bombardment, accompanied by the small boats being directly disintegrated on the sea, even if the small boats were not sunk, the flying scissor sailing ship quickly stepped forward, and the broadside battle began.

The battle was over in just an hour.

And such a scene is not only happening in this port, but also in the three ports of the entire Ming Dynasty.

Yan Song had long expected this situation.

For this reason, he even sent out all the first batch of flying scissor sailboats made by the imperial court.

And the result is undoubtedly perfect.

Under this blow, the entire southeast coast instantly fell silent.

Some businessmen who were originally waiting and watching couldn't hold back at the moment, and began to join the city division one after another.

And with the first, there will undoubtedly be a second, a third.

Soon, the city division gradually changed from the previous door to the city.

One by one, the trade was completed rapidly, and the income of the market began to skyrocket.

When Zhu Houxi learned the news, it was almost six months later.

When a shipload of silver was transported to Kyoto by sea, the information of the city division appeared on Zhu Houxi's desk, even if Zhu Houyu had expected it, his breathing couldn't help but become heavy.

"How much?"

With difficulty in speaking, Zhu Houxi looked at Lu Fang next to him.

"Your Majesty, the income of the city department in the past half year is five hundred and twenty-four thousand one hundred and thirteen taels."

Listening to Zhu Houxi's inquiry, Lu Fang couldn't help but speak with trembling at this moment.

More than five million taels.

That's more than five million taels.

You must know that last year's Daming treasury revenue was only more than 2 million taels, and at this moment, in less than half a year, the income of the three municipal shipping divisions was as high as two years' treasury income.

Even Lu Fang, who had seen the world, felt that he couldn't help breathing heavily.

"Good, good!"

"Hahaha!"

Listening to Lu Fang's words repeated, Zhu Houxi couldn't help laughing, and his expression couldn't help but be full of excitement at this moment.

Is Zhu Houxi short of money?

Of course there is a lack of money.

The annual income of the Ming Dynasty is about 2 million taels, and sometimes it is less, but the expenditure is as much as 5 million taels, and the annual income is less than half of the expenditure.

In such a situation, how can there be no shortage of money.

At this moment, the income given by the three municipal departments is more than two years of fiscal revenue, and this is only half a year, so you can imagine how big the income will be in one year.

Ten million taels, or more.

If it really could, even if many of the things he wanted to do would probably not be a problem.

The Ming Dynasty will inevitably be able to move towards greater prosperity.

Such a result, how not to excite him.

"Lu Fang, tell Yan Song that I am very satisfied."

Zhu Houxi spoke.

"Yes!"

Lu Fang nodded.

"Let's go down!"

Zhu Houxi waved his hand.

Lu Fang immediately bowed down and retreated.

Waiting for Lu Fang to retreat, Zhu Houxi couldn't help but quickly opened the chat group.

Sent this message out.

Ming Shizong Zhu Houxi: "Master Tai, Mr.'s method is really high, this time in just half a year, my country's treasury income has increased to five million taels." ”

Emperor Zhao Yu at the end of the Song Dynasty: "??? ”

Ming Chengzu Zhu Di: "Why is it like this?" ”

Emperor Zhao Yu at the end of the Song Dynasty: "Yes, why is there only so much?" ”

As soon as the news was issued, Zhu Houyu was still excited, but the content that flashed quickly made Zhu Houyu a little confused.

"This, so much?"

Zhu Houxi blinked subconsciously, only to realize that the text was really like this.

"Grandmaster Tai, you, you?"

Zhu Houxi subconsciously presented the text, but he didn't know how to describe it all of a sudden.

Ming Chengzu Zhu Di "You, what you, your kid is too bad to open the sea, Lao Tzu, the Ming Dynasty's treasury revenue last year exceeded 70,000 taels, of which overseas trade reached 50,000 taels." ”

"You won't be greedy for that money!"

Emperor Zhao Yu at the end of the Song Dynasty: "That's right, my Great Song Dynasty's treasury income this year is also 70 million taels, how can there be only so much, Your Majesty Jiajing, you won't be blinded." ”

Zhu Houxi was stunned, and there was a text presentation in the chat group again.

Just looking at this string of words, Zhu Houxi opened his mouth, but he was directly speechless.

Good guy, the treasury income of his ancestor has directly reached 70,000 taels, even the Great Song Dynasty, which he looks down on, has reached 70 million taels this year.

Looking back at his numbers, Zhu Houxi felt that his previous excitement disappeared by more than half at once.

The smile gradually stiffened on his face, and he didn't know how to express it for a while.
