Chapter 103: Chongzhen who has made a fortune

One by one, the vassal kings are acting, whether it is the vassal king who has been raised and abolished, or the vassal king who has ambition is acting, and at this moment, there are no poor people in the whole world, but there are no poor people who can be called vassal kings.

The eldest son of the emperors of the past dynasties was named the crown prince and ascended the throne; All the other sons were made princes.

The eldest son of the crown prince was named the grandson, and the rest of the sons were crowned kings of the county; After the crown prince ascended the throne, all the county kings were promoted to princes.

The eldest son of the prince is the son of the prince, and the eldest grandson is the grandson of the world, and he takes the throne; The rest of the sons were crowned kings of the county.

In other words, the lowest rank of the feudal king is the county king.

The king of the county: 6,000 stone of rice, 2,800 pieces of money, 10 pieces of brocade, 50 pieces of silk, 25 horses of Luo, 100 pieces of silk and winter and summer cloth, 500 taels of cotton, 50 taels of salt, 300 catties of tea, 10 horses and fodder monthly, women who have been enshrined and married, 1,000 stones of rice and 1,400 pieces of banknotes.

This is only the income given by the imperial court, in fact, the income that the county king can obtain is even greater than this imagined.

This is still the king of the county, and the prince is undoubtedly higher.

In the original trajectory, such a huge wealth could only lie in the treasury and eat ashes, and in the end it was either given to the liukou of Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong, or finally returned to the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

But at this moment, they have a new choice.

That is Zhu Youzhen.

When the decree is made known to the world.

For most of the next six months, a large number of feudal kings' wealth began to pour into the Ming Dynasty.

Transported by Jinyiwei, truckloads of gold and silver arrived one after another.

Zhu Youzhen, who was in the palace, also had to fall into shock again and again.

"Your Majesty, King Fu paid a tribute of six million taels, including 100,000 taels of gold, 3.7 million taels of silver, and copper coins!"

"The king of Shu paid a tribute of seven million taels, including more than 200,000 taels of gold, 2.3 million taels of silver, and copper coins."

In the Taihe Palace, Zhu Youzhen listened to the eunuch's report, looking at the boxes of gold and silver, he only felt that his breathing couldn't help but become heavy.

Money, unimaginable amount of money.

For Zhu Youzhen, who was extremely short of money, he almost couldn't help jumping.

"Your Majesty, the gold and silver tributes paid by the vassal kings in various places have been counted, and the total amount is three thousand two thousand two hundred and seventy-two thousand six hundred and thirty-one taels."

Wang Chengen also felt that he couldn't help breathing heavily at this moment.

Such a huge wealth is almost comparable to the income of the Ming treasury for fifteen years.

Even as a eunuch of Si Li Bingbi, he had never seen such a huge income.

"Okay, hahaha!"

"Mr. is worthy of being a great talent praised by my grandfather!"

Zhu Youzhen couldn't help but stand up excitedly, his eyes kept flickering, he was really throbbing at this moment.

Thirty million taels.

Such a value, even for Zhu Youzhen, is already extremely huge, and it is enough for him to do a lot of things.

As the emperor, as the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Youzhen felt that he might be the poorest, and the money in the treasury could almost run out of mice, and he still had to face a huge deficit in the treasury every year.

He could only withdraw the east wall and make up the west wall in one go.

But even if he doesn't know economics, Zhu Youzhen also knows that if this continues, the entire Ming Dynasty will inevitably collapse.

However, to no avail.

Even if he increased his taxes every year, he received less and less taxes, and he could not make up for such a huge deficit.

Not to mention doing something else.

Jiang Chen's words made him understand that the entire Ming Dynasty still died in his hands in the end.

And at this moment, the 30 million taels of silver arrived, and Zhu Youzhen's confidence suddenly came again.

With this sum of money, not to mention the rest, it is absolutely impossible for Daming to die in his hands, and even he may be able to become the next master of the Daming Center, and it seems not impossible to even compare with Emperor Guangwu of Han.

Of course, this excitement only lasted for a moment, and it was soon suppressed by Zhu Youzhen.

Zhu Youzhen watched all the scenes in the chat group before.

Naturally, I know Jiang Chen's evaluation of him.

That's not great.

Although as an emperor, it is difficult to be scolded by people who are almost pointing their noses at them.

can think about his grandfather, and the changes in the Ming Dynasty where the master of the world is located, Zhu Youzhen still forcibly pressed it, and his consciousness sank into his mind again.

"@晨, sir, I have listened to your plan and sealed the vassal king overseas, and obtained 30 million taels, what should I do next to save Daming."

Entering the group chat, Zhu Youzhen directly asked Jiang Chen.

"Good guy, Your Majesty Yongle, are you Ming so rich, the vassal king can pay a tribute of 30 million taels? @明成祖朱棣? ”

As soon as the text was sent out, Zhao Yu, the late Emperor of the Song Dynasty, couldn't help but let out an exclamation.

Even if the Great Song Dynasty has made great progress at this moment, because the foundation is relatively poor, not to mention compared with Yongle time and space, even the rising star Jiajing time and space is a lot worse.

Thirty million taels is not a small number for Zhao Yu.

He didn't expect that Zhu Youzhen would be able to collect 30 million taels according to Jiang Chen's method.

On the other side, looking at Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang who appeared when someone spoke, Ming Chengzu Zhu Di's face couldn't help but darken.

To be honest, they were still a little hesitant about Jiang Chen's words.

But at this moment, Zhu Youzhen's words undoubtedly confirmed everything Jiang Chen said.

After all, according to Jiang Chen's method, it is impossible for these vassal kings to take out all their property, and one-third of what they can take out is burning high incense, and maybe even one-tenth.

But even so, the money provided by these vassal kings was as high as 30 million taels.

So how many 30 million taels are left of these vassal kings?

Even if you think about it with your toes, you know.

Especially Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang's face was also a little ugly.

Even if he had some psychological expectations in Jiang Chen's words before, he didn't expect it to reach this level.

Ming Chengzu Zhu Di's face was not much better.

The vassal king has such a huge wealth, and the situation of the entire Ming Dynasty can be imagined.

As the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Di was also a little difficult to accept.

As for Ming Shizong, Zhu Houxi didn't care too much.

In fact, what is the situation of the vassal king, even if there is no Jiang Chen to say it, and there is no Zhu You to verify it, Zhu Houxi is also clear.

As I said before, the problem of the vassal king was already a problem before.

In the forty-first year of Jiajing, the imperial history Lin Run was on Shu Shizong: it was advisable to order the minister Kedao to gather in the court, and told the kings to be extremely poor and had to change. The accounting amount of the household department is calculated at a rate of ten years, and the number of soldiers and famine, retention and addition of the palace is counted. A total of good strategies for dealing with the aftermath, judging from the heart, in order to hang down the rules that are not easy for eternity. ”

Zhu Houxi even wanted to order the reduction of the clan several times, but unfortunately the obstacles suffered by the operation were too great, and he still could not continue.

Historically, it was not until the 44th year of Jiajing that the regulations were re-enacted.
