Chapter 2262 What about giving him a governor?

Accompanied by Cao Huachun's words, Zhu Youjian said, "Xuanzu's birthday, Wu Xiang enters the palace."

Eunuch Cao was stunned, "Now?"

This time period is already midnight, Zhu Youjian nodded, "Now."

Cao Huachun respectfully accepted the order, and he had already discovered that he had only been in contact with the Immortal Lord for more than half a month, and His Majesty's changes were huge.

There are many more decisive actions than before.

Especially after eating a few fairy foods and becoming stronger in physique, Zhu Youjian became more diligent and diligent than before. Even if the Later Jin Dynasty of Liaodong was no longer a big problem, the young emperor still did not slacken. Those immortals said it very clearly.

For the Ming Dynasty, the Later Jin Dynasty was not a problem. The difficulties were various natural disasters and man-made disasters within the Ming Dynasty. As long as the internal problems were straightened out, it would not be difficult to push Liaodong without the arrival of immortals. If the internal problems were not smoothed out, there would be other unrest in the Later Jin Dynasty, such as various civil unrest.

The destruction of the Qin Dynasty included Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, the destruction of the Han Dynasty included Zhang Jiao, and the destruction of the Tang Dynasty included Huang Chao Rebellion. Even if these names were not the ultimate beneficiaries, Zhu Youjian still understands what consequences could arouse civil chaos.

After a while, Zu Dashou, who had not fallen asleep, Wu Xiang and the others hurried into the palace and paid a visit. Zhu Youjian laughed and said, "Two families, I plan to stop levying Liao tribute from next year. What do you think?"

Zu Dashou immediately responded, "Your Majesty is wise, I congratulate you for my Emperor Ming to be like your Majesty!"

Wu Xiang followed suit and made a statement.

What is the concept of Liao salary? In the years after the Apocalypse, only Liao salary was collected in an additional 4 to 5 million taels of silver a year, which exceeded the normal taxes of the Ming Dynasty.

What's even more terrifying is that the court has collected so many things. Did the officials at the bottom double their demands when they attacked the people?? Embezzled? This behavior must have been.

Therefore, the burden on the people was almost several times. The Ming Dynasty was destroyed by the collapse of finances. The three major wages in the late Ming Dynasty were one of the main reasons for the destruction of the Ming Dynasty. This statement has always been very marketable.

The three major wages in the late Ming Dynasty, Liao wages, suppression wages, and training wages. The first one was the Liao wages in the late Wanli period, the second one was the commencement in the fourth year of Chongzhen, and the last one was the twelfth year of Chongzhen.

The latter two are targeting the increasingly fierce thieves in the country.

In Zu Dashou and Wu Xiang's words, Zhu Youjian laughed, "I also plan to transfer the two Qing families and your Liaodong troops to Fujian."

Zu Dashou was stunned for two moments.

Zhu Youjian was possessed by the actor, and sighed on the spot, "I received a secret report from the Jinyi Guard that the Fujian Navy guerrilla Zheng Zhilong sold the Zheng family flag on the southeast coast. All passing ships, as long as the Zheng family flag is raised, they can be avoided by pirates and pirates. If there is no such flag, they will be harassed and robbed."

"One flag, Zheng Zhilong collects 3,000 taels a year, and one flag can only protect one ship."

"After a year, by selling flags, Zheng Guerrilla was able to collect 10 million taels of silver. As the emperor, I am the emperor and the supreme emperor in the world, but in fact I am far inferior to a naturalized pirate leader."

Is this news true? The news that Jinyiwei heard from the group of slew guests was like this, but Zhu Youjian didn't believe it, and he couldn't believe that a pirate could be so rich.

The normal tax on the Ming Dynasty was only three to four million taels of silver a year. The increase in Liao pay was almost angered by heaven, and it was only four to five million taels a year. Zheng Zhilong, a pirate, could easily collect ten million a year for selling flags?

Who believes it!

But this is not a question of whether he believes it or not. He knew that the suspension of Liao salary would definitely make Zu Dashou, Wu Xiang and others feel resentful. It was just that due to the terrifying military pressure of the Ming Dynasty, they dared not vent.

Now, throw these guys to Fujian and go biting the dog with Zheng Zhilong.

It was only after four or five million taels of Liao salary a year that the current Liaodong military group was raised. Zhu Youjian no longer expected these guys to deal with the Later Jin Dynasty. They had no ability at all, so they should go and compete with Zheng Zhilong for food.

"Zuqing, I appointed you as the general of Taiwan and Wu Qing as the general of Fuzhou. As for the money and money, it depends on you to solve the problem yourself. No matter how much silver you can get from Zheng Zhilong, it is all yours. How about it?"

Zu Dashou and Wu Xiang's scalp were almost blown up. This Majesty not only wanted to throw them and their men from the northeast to the southeast, but also asked them to raise money for themselves... What a joke.

But when they thought of the power of the Chongzhen two-year-old rifle, they felt cold and they could only respectfully accept the order.

After the two generals left, Zhu Youjian said to Wang Chengen again, "The oral order, Li Weixian, the deputy envoy of overseas propaganda, has been loyal to the Emperor Ming for generations. When he learned that the country was in trouble, he immediately led his people back. I feel his sincerity and is now promoted to the prefect of Taiwan. He is allowed to allocate his own personnel and take office immediately. I will collect a tax of one million taels in Taiwan every year."

Wang Chengen was stunned when he heard this. Is this OK? In the Wanli period, the Ming Dynasty had already called Taiwan that big island, but is there anyone there? I heard that if Zheng Zhilong had not been immigrating there for many years, the island would probably be full of savages. By the way, there are still a group of Folang Ji people building the city?

There is not even a formal official system there, so I will now throw it to Li Weixian, who is not very clear from the origin?

No problem, Li Weixian's original deputy envoy of overseas propaganda was from the fourth rank, and one rank was the fourth rank, but there were not many civilized people in that kind of place. Now he threw a general like Zu Dashou and then a magistrate??

"Let the cabinet issue a formal imperial edict, save a million taels of tax information from the imperial edict, and send 800 miles to meet Li Weixian. I don't care whether he is a descendant sent out in the Chengzu era. As long as he can pay a million taels of tax a year, let alone the prefect, what if I give him a governor?"

I have fully realized that the biggest problem of the Ming Dynasty was the lack of money, and the immortals pointed out the topic.

Then, those who can make money are good ministers, and those who can save money are good generals.

Cutting off the Liao pay is a big sum of money, and throwing the Liaodong army into Fujian and Taiwan is a way to save money. There is no need to pay the normal military pay. As for Li Weixian, isn’t this a boast that Zheng Zhilong can sell 10 million taels in a year?

This is what you brag about, not what I said, so I will reduce your share and only get one tenth, right?

Some little pride flashed through his heart, and Zhu Youjian said again, "Take the main force of the Later Jin Dynasty trapped in Zunhua area, promulgated the imperial edict and ordered You Shiwei, Man Gui, and Hou Shilu to lead troops out of Liaodong and take down the cities of Shenyang and Liaoyang as soon as possible."

"According to the Immortal Lords, the leaders of the Later Jin Tartars would have to jump around for a while, but it would be okay to conquer the lost land when they were unable to return to the army."

"They all the main force of the clan are in Zunhua. I have personally gone to the battlefield to kill hundreds of Tartars. If Mangui and the other three face several empty cities, they still cannot take it down and they can be punished."
